Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl [(3S)-6-({3′-chloro-2′,6′-dimethyl-4′-[3-(methylsulfonyl)propoxy]biphenyl-3-yl}methoxy)-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-3-yl]acetate (0.676 g, 1.18 mmol) in a mixed solvent of methanol (2 mL) and tetrahydrofuran (4 mL) was added 2 M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (1.2 mL), and the mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 2 hr. The reaction mixture was diluted with water, acidified with 1 M hydrochloric acid, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The precipitated crystals were recrystallized from diethyl ether-ethyl acetate to give the title compound (0.418 g, yield 63%) as colorless crystals.
