Procedure

Sodium hydroxide (0.26 g, 6.50 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (30 ml), and methyl 2-fluoro-3-(N-methylbenzamido)benzoate (1.42 g, 4.94 mmol) was added thereto. The mixture was heated for 3 hours at 60° C. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, and then the solvent was concentrated under reduced pressure. The concentration residue was dissolved in water, and washed with methylene chloride. While the aqueous layer was cooled, the pH thereof was adjusted to 2 to 3 with a 1N hydrochloric acid, and a solid precipitated during continued agitation. The resultant solid was filtered, washed with water, and dried at 50° C., as a result of which 1.25 g (yield: 94%) of the indicated compound was obtained.
