Yield:156727-76-3 76%

Reaction Conditions:

Stage #1: (4-methylphenyl)-(3-methoxyphenyl)methanonewith potassium permanganate in water;tert-butyl alcohol; for 7.5 h;Reflux;
Stage #2: with sodium hydroxide in water;
Stage #3: with hydrogenchloride in water;

Steps:

3.1.b

b. Preparation of 4-(3'-methoxybenzoyl)benzoic acid 4.0 grams of 4-methyl-3'-methoxybenzophenone (3.1a) are dissolved in 40 ml of a t-butanol/water 1/1 (v/v) mixture. 6.44 grams of potassium permanganate are added. The reaction mixture is heated at reflux for 7.5 hours, then filtered on celite and concentrated under vacuum. The residue is dissolved in a 5% weight NaOH aqueous solution. The obtained solution is washed with ethyl ether and brought to an acid pH with a 37% w HCl aqueous solution. 4-(3'-methoxybenzoyl)benzoic acid (3.1b) is recovered as a white precipitate. The solid is filtered off and recrystallized by a methanol/H2O (1/1 v/v) solution. Yield: 76%.
