To this was added DMF (12 mmol, 0.6 mL) and stirred for one hour. The reaction mixture was allowed to come to room temperature overnight and then quenched with EtOAc (20 mL) and H2O (10 mL). The organic portion was collected, dried, filtered and the filtrate was evaporated to dryness to obtain 5-chloro-3-methyl benzofuran-2-carboxaldehyde (96%, 1.12 g), which-was carried on without further purification.
