Procedure
2N Sodium hydroxide (5 ml) was added to a solution of methyl 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-methyloxazole-5-propionate (1.4 g) in ethanol (10 ml) and the mixture was allowed to stand at room temperature for 30 minute, diluted with water and adjusted to pH 2 with hydrochloric acid. The resulting crystalline precipitate was collected by filtration and recrystallized from ethanol to give crystals of 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-methyloxazole-5-propionic acid, yield 1.17 g (88.6%), m.p. 211°-212° C. The IR and NMR spectra of this compound were in complete agreement with those of the compound obtained in Example 5.
