Ethyl [4-(4,9-diethoxy-1-oxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-benzo[f]isoindol-2-yl)phenyl]acetate (5.86 g, 13.5 mmol) and potassium carbonate (12 g) were added to a mixture of ethanol (146 ml) and water (70 ml) and heated to reflux for 2 h. The solution was cooled to room temperature and the solvent evaporated under vacuum to leave an off-white solid. The solid was slurried in water and the water was evaporated under vacuum. The residue was stirred in hydrochloric acid (2N) for 2 h, filtered and washed with water. Drying of the solid at 40° C. in a vacuum oven gave [4-(4,9-diethoxy-1-oxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-benzo[f]isoindol-2-yl)phenyl]acetic acid as a white solid (4.5 g, 82%)
