Procedure
1.48 g 2-(2,2,2-Trifluoro-ethoxy)-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoic acid 2,2,2-trifluoro-ethyl ester were dissolved in 10 ml ethanol. 0.34 g sodium hydroxide dissolved in 10 ml water were added and the reaction mixture stirred under reflux overnight. Then the ethanol was removed in vacuo. The residue was diluted by the addition of 30 ml water. Then concentrated hydrochloride acid was added to acidify the solution. Thereby 2-(2,2,2-Trifluoro-ethoxy)-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoic acid precipitated as white solid. The solid was collected by filtration dissolved in 50 ml ethyl acetate and dried over MgSO4. The solvent was removed in vacuo to obtain 826 mg 2-(2,2,2-Trifluoro-ethoxy)-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoic acid as a white solid.
