A solution of 5-fluorooxindole (980 mg, 6.5 mmol), (prepared according to Synthesis 1993, 51), in triethyl orthoformate (25 ml) was stirred and heated at reflux for 8 hours. The volatiles were removed by evaporation and the crude product purified by flash chromatography using petroleum ether/ether 7/3 as eluent to give 5-fluoro-1-diethoxymethyloxindole (637 mg, 40%).
