Procedure

To a solution of ethyl 2-methyldioxolan-2-ylacetate (2.0 g) in methanol (69 ml) was added 1N sodium hydroxide solution (23 ml), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. Then, the mixture was neutralized with 1N hydrochloric acid, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. To the mixture was added ethyl acetate, and the mixture was dried with magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to give 2-methyldioxolan-2-ylacetic acid (1.63 g) as colorless
