A mixture of 2-(3,4-dimethylphenoxy)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-methyl-propionic acid ethyl ester (0.030 mmol) (see Ex. 32, Part C), toluene-4-sulfonic acid 2-(5-methyl-2-biphenyl-4-yl-oxazol-4-yl)ethyl ester (0.030 mmol) (see Ex. 1, Part I) and 325 mesh K2CO3 (0.084 g, 0.60 mmol) in ethanol (2 mL) was heated to reflux for 24 h under N2. Aqueous 5N NaOH (0.5 mL) and additional ethanol (1 mL) was added to the reaction mixture and it was heated at reflux for an additional 2 h. The reaction was cooled and the solvent removed in vacuo. The residue was acidified with aqueous 1 N HCl (5 mL), extracted with water and CH2Cl2 and the organic layer dried by passing it through a Varian Chem Elut 1003 cartridge. The solvent was removed in vacuo to give 3-{4-[2-(2-biphenyl-4-yl-5-methyl-oxazol-4-yl)-ethoxy]-phenyl}-2-(3,4-dimethyl-phenoxy)-2-methyl-propionic acid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.10 (d, 2H, J=8.4 Hz), 7.71 (d, 2H, J=8.4 Hz), 7.65–7.62 (m, 2H), 7.49–7.45 (m, 2H), 7.42–7.30 (m, 1H), 7.19 (d, 2H, J=8.4 Hz), 7.00 (d, 1H, J=8.4 Hz), 6.83 (d, 2H, J=8.4 Hz), 6.70 (d, 1H, J=2.4 Hz), 6.64 (dd, 1H, J=8.4, 2.4 Hz), 4.26 (t, 2H, J=6.0 Hz), 3.22 and 3.11 (d of Abq, 2H, J=14.0 Hz), 3.09 (t, 2H, J=6.0 Hz), 2.44 (s, 3H), 2.19 (s, 3H), 2.18 (s, 3H), 1.39 (s, 3H).
