At 5° C., 80 mL of a 25% wt. sodium methoxide in methanol (0.37 moles) were added over 15 minutes. The reaction mixture was stirred overnight at 25° C. The mixture was poured over 300 mL ice water and 21.3 mL (0.37 moles) acetic acid were added. The organic layer was washed two times with water, dried over anhydrous MgSO4, and concentrated in vacuo to give 62.85 g (97%) 4-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-1,1,1-trifluoro-4-hydroxy-3-buten-2-one as a yellow oil; 1HNMR (CDCl3) ppm: 6.61 (s,1H), 6.87 (m, 1H), 6.97 (m, 1H), 7.97 (m, 1H).
