The mixture was maintained at 55° C. for an additional 90 min. The reaction was cooled to ambient temperature and poured onto ice-water (200 mL). The pH of the solution was adjusted to 2 using aqueous NaHCO3 solution. The precipitate formed was filtered and washed with hexanes (100 mL) to afford 5-fluoro-3-methoxy-2-nitrobenzoic acid (2.52 g, 66%) as a white solid. 1H NMR and MS consistent.
