Procedure
A solution of 2-(trifluoromethyl)phenol (3.20 g, 20.0 mmol) in acetone (20 mL) was added with 1,1,1-trichloro-2-methyl-2-propanol 0.5 hydrate (7.82 g, 40.0 mmol) and sodium hydrate (3.20 g, 80.0 mmol) at 0° C., and the resultant was stirred at room temperature for 20 hours. The reaction solution was concentrated in vacuo, added with water, and washed with diethylether. The aqueous layer was neutralized with concentrated hydrochloric acid, and extracted with chloroform. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, concentrated in vacuo, and 2-methyl-2-[2-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]propionic acid (1.35 g, 27.2%) was obtained as a white amorphous solid.
