Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3.8 g (0.014 mole) of 4-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-furanyl]-4-hydroxybutanoic acid and 60 ml of 10% hydrochloric acid was warmed at 45° for 2 hrs and then cooled in an ice bath. The solid was filtered, washed with water and air-dried to yield 3.3 g (95%). An analytical sample was prepared by dissolving a sample in ethyl acetate (Darco), diluting with hexane and drying the resulting solid in a vacuum pistol at room temperature, m.p. 57°-59°.
