Procedure

A solution of 4.7 g of silver nitrate in 6 ml of distilled water was added to a stirred suspension of 4.0 g of 5-{5-[4-(4,5-dihydro-2-oxazolyl)-2-formylphenoxy]pentyl}-3-methylisoxazole (Example 70) in 60 ml of ethanol. The mixture was stirred for about two minutes, and then a solution of 8.4 g of potassium hydroxide in 140 ml of water was slowly added. The latter mixture was stirred for two hours, then filtered and the filtrate acidified. The solid product was collected, washed with dilute hydrochloric acid, dried and recrystallized from methanol to give 1.6 g of 5-{5-[2-carboxy-4-(4,5-dihydro-2-oxazolyl)phenoxy]pentyl}-3-methylisoxazole, m.p. 170°-171° C.
