実験手順

To a stirred solution of 2-fluoro-3-methylbenzoic acid (4.0 g, 26.0 mmol) in anhydrous methanol (52 mL) at 0° C. was added thionyl chloride (2.8 mL, 39.0 mmol) dropwise and the reaction mixture was stirred overnight at reflux. The mixture was diluted with methanol and concentrated under reduced pressure to remove the excess thionyl chloride. The residue was then dissolved in ethyl acetate, washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate, dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to give methyl 2-fluoro-3-methylbenzoate (3.6 g, 83%) as a clear oil that was used in the next step without further purification: 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.75-7.72 (m, 1H), 7.38-7.35 (m, 1H), 7.26-7.06 (m, 1H), 3.91 (s, 3H), 2.31 (s, 3H).
