Procedure

Boron trifluoride dimethyl sulfide complex (70 mL) was added into a mixture of N-(4-chloro-2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-fluoro-4-methoxybenzamide (1.75 g, 5.15 mmol) and CH2Cl2 (35 mL). After stirring for 20 h, the solvent and the excess reagent were evaporated under a nitrogen stream in the hood. The residue was taken in a mixture of ice and HCl (1N) and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with HCl (1N) and dried over MgSO4. Evaporation and purification by flash chromatography (CH2Cl2/hexanes/EtOAc 5/3/2, and AcOH 10 mL per 1 liter of the eluting solvent) gave a white solid (1.4 g, 91% yield, m.p. 254-256° C.); MS m/e 296 (M−H)+.
