Procedure

To a solution of methyl 3-methyl-4-(4-methylthiazol-2-yl)benzoate (Step A, 6.0 g, 22.96 mmol) in 1,4-dioxane (5 mL) was added lithium hydroxide (1.65 g, 68.9 mmol) in water (5 mL). Once the reaction was deemed complete by LCMS, it was concentrated in vacuo. The residual white solid was washed with a mixture of dichloromethane/methanol (1/1), and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated to give the title compound as a white solid which was used in the next step without further purification. LCMS (M+H)+: 234.1
