To a solution of ethyl 2-methyl-2-(methylsulfonyl)-4-(4-phenyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)butanoate (335 mg, 0.956 mmol, 1 eq) in THF/MeOH/Water (4:1:1) was added lithium hydroxide monohydrate (160 mg, 3.82 mmol, 4 eq) and the mixture was allowed to stir at RT overnight. The reaction was diluted with 1 N HCl and loaded onto a 6 g MCX column. The column was washed with 1 column volume water and 2 column volumes MeOH. The washes were discarded. The column was then eluted with 0.5 N NH3 in Methanol. The eluant was concentrated to give 2-methyl-2-(methylsulfonyl)-4-(4-phenyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)butanoic acid (304 mg, 98% yield). LC-MS M+H+323.4.
