A practical synthesis of optically pure PPARα agonist, (R)-K-13675, is described. This process is based on the use of (S)-2-hydroxybutyrolactone, which can be transformed into the requisite n-butyl (S)-2-hydroxybutanoate in an efficient manner. A key reaction is the etherification between the phenol and n-butyl (S)-2-trifluoromethanesulfonyloxybutanoate to give the phenyl ether in excellent yield without loss of optical purity.

A process for obtaining a compound (1) and an intermediate thereof in high yield and high optical yield is provided. A process for producing a compound (4), the process including reacting a compound (2) with a compound (3) in the presence of a base; and a process for producing a compound (1), the process including reacting a compound (2) with a compound (3) in the presence of a base to yield a compound (4) and then deesterifying the compound (4). wherein R represents an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms or an aralkyl group having 7 to 8 carbon atoms.
