3-{4-[2-(4-Aminophenyl)ethoxy]phenyl}-(S)-2-ethoxypropanoic acid hydro chloride (described in Example 56a) (0.115 g, 0.314 mmole) in tetrahydrofuran (3 ml) was mixed with a mixture of formic acid (0.5 ml) and acetic anhydride (0.3 ml). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. Tetrahydrofuran was evaporated. Ethyl acetate and water were added into the residue. The phases were separated. The organic phase was washed with brine, dried with magnesium sulfate and the solvent was evaporated. Chromatography of the residue on silica gel (Isolute, SI) using dichloromethane, then methanol/dichloromethane (1%), followed by methanol/dichloromethane (2%) as eluants gave 0.07 g (yield 62%) of (S)-2-ethoxy-3-(4-{[4-(formylamino)phenethyl]oxy}phenyl)propanoic acid.
