Using 2-benzyloxyphenylacetic acid methyl ester as a starting material and also using potassium t-butoxide as a base, the same procedure of Example la gave 2-(2-benzyloxyphenyl)propioic acid methyl ester. Using lithium diisopropylamide as a base, the resulting 2-(2-benzyloxyphenyl)propionic acid methyl ester was further treated as in Example la to give 4.72 g of the titled compound (yield, 70%).
