Procedure

A mixture of ethyl 4-(1-pyrrolyl)phenylglycolate (0.49 g., 0.002 mole), ethanol (10 ml), dioxane (1.2 ml) and 2 M aqueous KOH (1.5 ml) was stirred at 27° C. for 3 hrs., and then evaporated to dryness. The residue was dissolved in H2O. The solution was acidified with acetic acid and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×15 ml). The combined extracts after washing with H2O and drying (MgSO4), evaporation and recrystallization of the residue from H2O gave 0.19 g (44%) of 4-(1-pyrrolyl)phenylglycolic acid, m.p. 168°-168.5° C.
