A solution of isopropyl 3-p-fluorobenzoyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyridine-8-carboxylate in methanol is treated under an atmosphere of nitrogen with a solution of sodium hydroxide in water, maintaining the reaction mixture at room temperature for 1.5 hours. The methanol is then removed under reduced pressure and the basic solution which remains is diluted with water and extracted with ether to remove any unsaponifiable product. The aqueous solution is acidified with 10% hydrochloric acid and extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined extracts are dried and evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure, and the residue crystallized from ethyl acetate-hexane, to give 3-p-fluorobenzoyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyridine-8-carboxylic acid, identical to the product obtained in Example 8.
