A mixture of 3-fluoro-4-nitrotoluene (10 g, 1 eq) and potassium permanganate (25.5 g, 2.5 eq) in water (1 L) is heated under reflux for 6 hours then cooled down to ambient temperature. The mixture is filtered on celite and the aqueous phase is washed twice with diethyl ether (2×300 ml). The aqueous phase is acidified, at 0° C., with a solution of concentrated hydrochloric acid then concentrated under reduced pressure at 40° C. to a volume of approximately 300 ml. The precipitate formed is filtered then washed with petroleum ether and dried in order to produce the expected compound in the form of a white solid (6.9 g; 58% yield).
