H2SO4 (9.6 mL, 179.12 mmol) was added to a solution of diflunisal (15.0 g, 59.95 mmol) in MeOH (200 mL). The reaction mixture was refluxed for 12 h and it was allowed to reach r.t. Solids were collected by filtration and washed with cold MeOH (20 mL) to furnish 13.42 g of methyl 2′,4′-difluoro-4-hydroxybiphenyl-3-carboxylate (white solid, yield: 85%).
