Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of ethyl [3-[[2-(4,5-diphenyloxazol-2-yl)-2-cyclopenten-1-yl]methyl]phenoxy]acetate (400 mg) in ethanol (20 ml) was added 1N-sodium hydroxide solution (0.83 ml). After being stirred for 8 hours, the solvent was evaporated in vacuo. The residue was triturated in ether to give sodium [3-[[2-(4,5-diphenyloxazol-2-yl)-2-cyclopenten-1-yl]methyl]phenoxy]acetate (350 mg).
