Acetic acid (cat. amount) was added dropwise with stirring and the reaction mixture was heated at reflux for 20 minutes. The mixture was cooled to room temperature and solids were removed by filtration. Volatiles were removed in vacuo and the aqueous solution was extracted with EtOAc (3×150 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to provide 8 g (95%) of 4-amino-1-difluoromethoxy-2-methyl-benzene.
