Reaction Conditions:

with sodium hydroxide in tetrahydrofuran;methanol;water at 20 - 85;

Steps:

1.B [0116] General Procedure- Step B: hydrolysis of methyl 2-(octyloxy)benzoate (4).

A slurry of the methyl 2-(octyloxy)benzoate (8.6 g, 32.8 mmol) in MeOH/THF (v:v = 1:1, 40 ml) at room temperature was treated with NaOH (1M solution in H2O, 100 ml, 100 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated to 85°C for overnight. Removal of the solvent in vacuo followed by dissolving the residue solids with H2O and acidified with 1N HCl, and extracted with EtOAc (3x 100 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude material was purified by Biotage flash chromatography (gradient elution, 0 to 30% EtOAc in hexanes) to obtain the title compound 4 (8.0 g, 97%) as colorless oil.1H NMR (400MHz, DMSO-d6) d 12.31 (s, 1H), 7.59 (dd, J = 7.6, 1.8 Hz, 1H), 7.46 (ddd, J = 7.8, 7.8, 1.8 Hz, 1H), 7.09 (d, J = 8.2 Hz, 1H), 6.96 (dd, J = 7.6, 7.6 Hz, 1H), 4.01 (t, J = 6.4 Hz, 1H), 1.70 (m, 2H), 1.43 (m, 2H), 1.35- 1.22 (m, 8H), 0.86 (t, J = 6.8 Hz, 3H). LCMS (m/z) 251.2 (M+H); RT (Method B, std LCMS method), 1.34 min
