A mixture of 5.0 g of 2-fluoro-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde, 3.3 g of methyl thioglycolate, 4.0 g of potassium carbonate and 50 ml of DMF was stirred at 60° C. for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled down to room temperature. To the reaction mixture was added water, and the mixture was extracted with tert-butyl methyl ether three times. The combined organic layers were washed with water and saturated saline, and dried over magnesium sulfate, then, concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was recrystallized from methanol, to obtain 6.3 g of methyl 5-(trifluoromethyl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate (present condensed ring compound 1).
