The filtrate is cooled to room temperature and the precipitated solids are removed by filtration. The filtrate is concentrated to a small volume and partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer is dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to provide 9.45 g of 3-fluoro-4-(2-methoxyethoxy)aniline as a brown liquid.
