Reaction Steps

The ester oil from Part (1) (1.82 g, 9.6 mmol) was treated with 2N NaOH (20 ml). The heterogeneous mixture was stirred vigorously at room temperature and became homogeneous in about 30 minutes. After stirring 4 hours, the reaction was washed with ether (2×30 ml) and the ether washes were reextracted with 2N NaOH solution (10 ml). The combined aqueous layers were acidified to pH 1 with concentrated HCl and the product was extracted into ether (2×30 ml). The combined ether extracts were washed with saturated NaCl solution (2×20 ml), dried (MgSO4) and freed of solvent in vacuo. The crude solid obtained (1.48 g) was recrystallized from benzene to give title acid (1.11 g, 6.3 mmol, 66%) as colorless crystals, m.p. 83°-84°.
