Procedure
P1.2): 650 mg of 3,3-dichloro-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-acrylic acid ethyl ester are introduced into 4 ml of tetrahydrofuran. 100 mg of lithium hydroxide in 1.5 ml of water are then added and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 16 hours. After a further 4 hours at 40° C., the reaction mixture is poured into water, rendered acidic with concentrated hydrochloric acid and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phases are washed twice with water and concentrated. 3,3-Dichloro-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-acrylic acid is obtained.
