Reaction Steps
The procedure in Example 6 is followed but using methyl 2-ethyl-6-[(4,6-diphenyl-2-pyridyl)oxy]hexanoate (3.15 g), potassium hydroxide pellets (0.9 g) dissolved in distilled water (20 cc) and ethanol (100 cc). The reaction mixture is refluxed for 8 hours. The product is purified by recrystallisation in an n-hexane-ethyl acetate (2-1) mixture (40 cc), white crystals (m.p.=115° C.)
