Procedure
A mixture of methyl 5-{2-[(4-methoxybenzyl)oxy]-2-methylpropoxy}pyrazine-2-carboxylate (3.5 g), 1 M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (35 mL), methanol (35 mL), and THF (35 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. To the reaction mixture was added water, followed by washing with ethyl acetate. To the aqueous layer was added 1 M hydrochloric acid to adjust the pH to 4, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated to obtain 5-{2-[(4-methoxybenzyl)oxy]-2-methylpropoxy}pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (2.5 g) as a pale yellow solid.
