Procedure

To a solution of propyl 5-formyl-2-propoxybenzoate (1.0 g, 4.0 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran/methanol/water (20 mL: 20 mL: 8 mL) is added 5 N sodium hydroxide solution (2 mL, 10 mmol). The mixture is heated in a 70° C. oil bath for three hours and then allowed to cool to room temperature. While acidifying to pH 1 with concentrated hydrochloric acid, a white solid precipitated, which is collected and discarded. The filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure, and the solid residue is collected by filtration and washed with water to give 5-formyl-2-propoxybenzoic acid as flocculent white needles (0.79 g, 95%).
