Reaction Steps

In 25 ml of 90% methanol was suspended 0.54 g of methyl 4-methoxy-2-[p-(4-phenylbutoxy)benzamido]phenoxyacetate obtained in Example 95. To the suspension wad added 10 ml of a 1N sodium hydroxide aqueous solution followed by stirring at 60° C. for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with 50 ml of water and the system was rendered acidic with 7 ml of 2N hydrochloric acid. Extraction was performed with ethyl acetate. After the organic layer was washed water and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the solvent was distilled off. The obtained solid was recrystallized from isopropyl alcohol to obtain 0.4 g of 4-methoxy-2-[p-(4-phenylbutoxy)benzamido]phenoxyacetic acid.
