Ethyl 4-[(cyclopropylmethyl)oxy]cyclohexanecarboxylate (D42, 20.8 g, 45.8 mmol) was taken up in THF (50 mL)/methanol (50 mL). Sodium hydroxide (20 mL, 250 mmol, concentrated) was added to the solution which was left to stir o/n. The THF/methanol was evaporated and the crude residue washed with Et2O. The aqueous layer was acidified with 5 M HCl and extracted with EtOAc (2×). The EtOAc organics were combined, dried (Na2SO4) and the solvent evaporated to give a mixture of cis and trans 4-[(cyclopropylmethyl)oxy]cyclohexanecarboxylic acid (D43, 9.47 g, 94%) as a yellow oil.
