Procedure
4N NaOH solution (4 L) was added to a solution of (trans)-ethyl 2-(4-(benzyloxy)phenyl)cyclopropanecarboxylate (Intermediate R, 250 g, 0.844 mol) in Methanol (1.2 L) at 0° C. and stirred at RT for 4 h. After completion, the solvent was evaporated, the residue was diluted with water (1 L), acidified with 4 N HCl solution, extracted with EtOAc (2×2 L). Combined organic extracts were washed with water (1 L), brine (1 L), dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and evaporated to afford (trans)-2-(4-(benzyloxy)phenyl)cyclopropanecarboxylic acid (190 g, 84%) as off white solid. The crude was carried to next step without further purification.
