Procedure

To a solution of (3-bromo-5-fluoro-2-methyl-phenyl)-methanol (1.7 g, 7.76 mmol) in trifluoroacetic acid (20 mL) was added Tl(CF3COO)3 (4.2 g, 7.76 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight, then concentrated to dryness. The residue was dissolved in MeOH (50 mL). To the mixture was added PdCl2 (137 mg, 0.776 mmol), LiCl (652 mg, 15.5 mmol) and MgO (652 mg, 15.5 mmol). The resulting mixture was reacted under a CO (50 psi) atmosphere at room temperature overnight, and then filtered. The filtrate was concentrated and the residue was purified by column chromatography to give 5-bromo-7-fluoro-4-methyl-3H-isobenzofuran-1-one.
