Procedure

A solution of 142.6 mg (0.339 mmol) of ethyl 4-[(5,6-dihydro-5,5-dimethyl-8-(4-methylphenyl)-2-naphthalenyl)ethynyl]benzoate (Compound 1) and 35.6 mg (0.848 mmol) of LiOH—H2O in 12 ml of THF/water (4:1, v/v), was stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction mixture was extracted with hexanes, and the hexane fraction extracted with 5% aqueous NaOH. The aqueous layers were combined and acidified with 1M HCl, and then extracted with EtOAc and Et2O. The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to give the title compound as a colorless solid. 1H NMR (d6-DMSO): δ 7.91 (2H, d, J=8.4 Hz), 7.60 (2H, d, J=8.4 Hz), 7.47 (2H, s), 7.23 (4H, q, J=8.1 Hz), 7.01 (1H, s), 6.01 (1H, t, J=4.6 Hz), 2.35 (3H, s), 2.33 (2H, d, J=4.8 Hz), 1.30 (6H, s).
