tert-Butyl 3-[2-(1-naphthyl)ethoxy]propanoate (6.19 g) was taken up in dichloromethane (30 mL) and treated with trifluoroacetic acid (5 mL). The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours, an additional 1 mL of trifluoroacetic acid was added and the solution stirred overnight. The mixture was concentrated, taken up in 2M sodium hydroxide solution (30 mL) and washed with ether (2×20 mL). The aqueous layer was subsequently acidified (using 1M hydrochloric acid) and extracted with ether (2×30 mL). The combined organics were washed with brine (20 mL), dried over anhydrous magnesium sulphate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to give the sub-titled compound (5.66 g) as a clear oil.
