A mixture of 648 mg (1.4 mmol) of [[3-(2-amino-1,2-dioxoethyl)-1-([1,1'-biphenyl]-2-ylmethyl)-2-methyl-1H-indol-4-yl]oxy]acetic acid methyl ester in 10 mL of 1N NaOH and 20 mL of MeOH was heated to maintain reflux for 1 hour, cooled to room temperature and stirred 0.5 hour. The mixture was concentrated, the residue stirred with a mixture of EtOAc/water and the solid material that did not dissolve was filtered and dried to give 227 mg (35% yield) of [[3-(2-amino-1,2-dioxoethyl)-1-([1,1'-biphenyl]-2-ylmethyl)-2-methyl-1H-indol-4-yl]oxy]acetic acid, sodium salt, mp, >265° C.
