Route of Synthesis (ROS)

| Conditions | Yield |
| With sodium hydroxide In water at 18 – 25℃; Large scale; Experimental Procedure 1 2-(4-(Hydroxymethyl)phenyl)acetic acid (C) 2-(4-(Hydroxymethyl)phenyl)acetic acid (C) To a solution of NaOH (1.61 kg, 40.2 mol, 4 eq) in water (90 L) was added B (2.3 kg, 10.0 mol, 1 eq) and the resulting mixture was stirred at RT overnight. TLC analysis indicated consumption of B. The reaction mixture was then carefully acidified with concentrated H2SO4 (1.0 L) to pH˜2. Then, solid NaCl (25 kg) was added to the mixture followed by extraction with EtOAc (33 L3). The combined organic phase was washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated until a significant amount of solid precipitated. The resulting suspension was kept at ˜4-6° C. overnight to allow for further crystallization. The solid product was then collected by filtration. The filter cake was washed with petroleum ether (2 L2) to yield the title compound (1.2 kg, yield: 71.9%). HPLC purity: 97.8% (220 nm); 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 12.27 (s, 1H), 7.26-7.12 (m, 4H), 5.14 (s, 1H), 4.47 (s, 2H), 3.53 (s, 2H). | 71.9% |
| With sodium hydroxide In water at 20℃; Large scale; Experimental Procedure 1 2-(4-(Hydroxymethyl)phenyl)acetic acid (C): To a solution of NaOH (1.61 kg, 40.2 mol, 4 eq) in water (90 L) was added B (2.3 kg, 10.0 mol, 1 eq) and the resulting mixture was stirred at RT overnight. TLC analysis indicated consumption of B. The reaction mixture was then carefully acidified with concentrated H2SO4 (1.0 L) to pH ~2. Then, solid NaCl (25 kg) was added to the mixture followed by extraction with EtOAc (33 L x 3). The combined organic phase was washed with brine, dried over Na2S04, and concentrated until a significant amount of solid precipitated. The resulting suspension was kept at ~4-6°C overnight to allow for further crystallization. The solid product was then collected by filtration. The filter cake was washed with petroleum ether (2 L x 2) to yield the title compound (1.2 kg, yield: 71.9%). HPLC purity: 97.8% (220 nm); 1H NMR (300 MHz, OMSO-d6) δ 12.27 (s, 1H), 7.26-7.12 (m, 4H), 5.14 (s, 1H), 4.47 (s, 2H), 3.53 (s, 2H). | 71.9% |
| With sodium hydroxide; sodium chloride; sodium acetate In water Experimental Procedure 44.i 44(i) 44(i) 4-Hydroxymethylphenylacetic acid A solution of 9.00 g (39.3 mmol) of p-bromomethylphenylacetic acid, 3.14 g (78.6 mmol) of sodium hydroxide and 3.54 g (43.2 mmol) of sodium acetate in 40 ml of water was stirred for 4 hours at 100° C. At the end of this time, it was cooled to room temperature and then acidified with 2N aqueous hydrochloric acid. It was then extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride. The organic phase was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was recrystallized from a mixture of ethyl acetate and methylene chloride to give 3.60 g (yield 55%) of the title compound, melting at 136°-137° C. Infrared Absorption Spectrum (KBr) νmax cm-1: 3304, 1703, 1520, 1421, 1408, 1360, 1288, 1234, 1200, 1188, 1009. | 55% |
| With water for 2h; Reflux; Experimental Procedure 1 Synthetic compound 3 Compound 2 (50 g) was added to 200 ml of water,Stir and heat to reflux for 2 hours,Anti-strain clarification,Then cool to room temperatureThe ice bath cooled to about 2 degrees,A white solid precipitated and was filtered. The cake was washed twice with water to give a white solid.The white solid was dried at 50[deg.] C. for 10 hours to yield about 33 g of compound 3. | 33g |
