Методика

Ethyl 4-(2,2,3-trimethylcyclopentyl)butanoate (5 g, 22 mmol) was added to THF (25 ml) into a round bottom flask. Aqueous 1 N NaOH (25 ml) was then added to the flask and the reaction mixture was refluxed at 110° C. for 8 h. Upon completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was diluted with 1 N NaOH (25 ml) and the aqueous layer washed twice with MTBE (50 ml×2). The aqueous layer was treated with aqueous 1.0 N HCl until it reached a pH of about 3 (for example from 2 to 4), then extracted three times with AcOEt (50 ml×3). The combined AcOEt extracts were concentrated in vacuo and purified via flash column chromatography with (0-40% gradient) to give 4-(2,2,3-trimethylcyclopentyl)butanoic acid as a colorless oil (3.82 g, 87%). The NMR data is indicated below.
