Procedure

To a solution of methyl 4-((tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)oxy)benzoate (400 mg, 1.6 mmol) in MeOH (10 ml) was added a solution of NaOH (128 mg, 3.2 mmol) in H2O (4 mL) at 22° C. The mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 4 h. The mixture was concentrated and the residue was treated with water and extracted with EA. The water layer was treated with 2N HCl to pH=3. The water layer was then extracted with EA. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to give the title product which was used in next step without further purification (350 mg, Yield 98.6%). 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz): δ 8.08 (d, J=8.9 Hz, 2H), 6.98 (d, J=8.9 Hz, 2H), 4.64 (tt, J=7.7, 3.8 Hz, 1H), 3.95-4.09 (m, 2H), 3.64 (ddd, J=11.6, 8.2, 3.3 Hz, 2H), 2.01-2.13 (m, 2H), 1.78-1.93 (m, 2H).
