Upon completion of this addition, 99% formic acid (9 ml) was slowly added for the next 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was stirred for another 1 hr at 60° C. (monitored by LCMS). The reaction mixture thus formed was then slowly poured into vigorously stirred methanol (75 ml) cooled to 00° C. The mixture was allowed to slowly warm to room temperature while stirring the reaction mixture for 4-5 hrs. The mixture was then concentrated under vacuum. The residue was poured into ice (30 g) and basified with saturated Na2CO3 solution. The aqueous layer was extracted with 5% methanol in DCM (3×100 ml). Combined organic layer was washed with brine and dried over Na2SO4. The organic layer was finally concentrated to get intermediate-8, (550 mg, 50% yield) as an oily mass.
