YieldReaction ConditionsOperation in experiment
With potassium permanganate; sulfuric acid; In toluene; EXAMPLE 12 Preparation of 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-methylbutyric acid 100 g (0.49 mol) of 96.42% by weight 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-methylbutanal (the product of Example 11) and 558.4 g of 19.4% by weight sulfuric acid are initially introduced into a 1 liter three-necked flask fitted with a stirrer, a reflux condenser, a dropping funnel, and an internal thermometer. Thereto, 79.05 g (0.5 mol) of KMnO4 are added at 20 to 25 C. in the course of 2 hours. After an after-reaction of one hour at 20 to 25 C., 600 g of toluene are introduced. The solid is filtered off and the organic phase is separated from the aqueous phase. The organic phase is freed from the toluene on a rotary evaporator and the residue is recrystallized from cyclohexane. The yield is 86.4 g corresponding to 82.8% of theoretical (based on the aldehyde employed), and the product has a melding point of 89 to 91 C.

EXAMPLE 5 5.30 g of (-)-isomer rich alpha-isopropyl-4-chlorophenylacetic acid ([alpha]D24 -46.56) was mixed with 2.10 g of potassium hydroxide and 50 ml of ethylene glycol, and the resulting mixture was kept at 170 C. for 15 hours. The reaction solution was cooled to room temperature, diluted with 250 ml of water and acidified to a pH of 1 with concentrated hydrochloric acid. Thereafter, the same procedure as in Example 1 was carried out to obtain 5.19 g of racemized alpha-isopropyl-4-chlorophenylacetic acid. The rate of conversion was about 95%. [alpha]D22.0 -2.07.
STEP D: D 2-isopropyl-2-p-chlorophenyl-acetic acid 286 ml of 2 N aqueous hydrochloric acid were added with stirring to a mixture of 143 g of the product of Step C and 286 ml of methylene chloride and the mixture was stirred for 15 minutes resulting in 2 limpid phases. The decanted aqueous phase was extracted with methylene chloride and the combined organic phases were washed with water.

A solution of 2-chloromethyl-4-(2-methylbenzyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazolin-5-one (13.3 g) in xylene (35 cc) is added in the course of 20 minutes to a solution of <strong>[2012-74-0]2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-methyl-butyric acid</strong> (19 g) and triethylamine (11.7 cc) in xylene (175 cc) heated to 110 C. The reaction mixture is heated at the reflux temperature for 4 hours and, after cooling, is washed successively with water (100 cc), a 3.5% strength aqueous hydrochloric acid solution (100 cc), a 4% strength aqueous sodium carbonate solution (100 cc) and water (100 cc). After drying, decolorizing over animal charcoal and concentrating under reduced pressure, the residue obtained is purified by chromatography on a silica column and gives [4-(2-methylbenzyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazolin-5-on-2-yl]-methyl 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-methylbutyrate (11.2 g) in the form of an oil.
