Yield: 99%

Reaction Conditions:

Stage #1:dimethyl 4-methoxyphtalate with potassium hydroxide;water in methanol for 4 h;Heating / reflux;
Stage #2: with hydrogenchloride in water; pH=<= 2

Steps:

C.C2
A solution of dimethyl 4-methoxyphthalate (36.75 g, 0.16 mol) in methanol (100 ml) was treated with a solution of potassium hydroxide (28.0 g, 0.5 mol) in water (50 ml) and the mixture was stirred and held at reflux for 4 hours. Upon cooling to room temperature the methanol was removed in vacuo and the mixture acidified to pH 2 or below by the addition of 5M hydrochloric acid. The solid material was filtered off, washed with water and sucked dry under reduced pressure overnight to afford 4-methoxyphthalic acid (31.8 g, 99%) as an off white solid. 1H NMR (DMSOd6) 12.90 (2H, br s), 7.74 (1H, d), 7.12-7.05 (2H1 m), 3.84 (3H, s). MS: [M+H]+ 197.
