Diazomethyl-trimethyl-silane (11.6 mL of 2.0 M, 23.2 mmol) was added dropwise to a solution of 2-(4-bromo-2-fluoro-phenyl)acetic acid (4.50 g, 19.3 mmol) in toluene (7.7 mL) and MeOH (7.7 mL) under a nitrogen atmosphere at room temperature. A persistent yellow color remained after complete addition of diazomethane. The reaction was then quenched with a few drops of acetic acid and the solvents were removed under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel flash column chromatography using 0-10% EtOAc in hexanes to yield methyl 2-(4-bromo-2-fluoro-phenyl)acetate (4.32 g, 91%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.28-7.22 (m, 2H), 7.15 (t, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 3.71 (s, 3H), 3.63 (d, J=1.0 Hz, 2H).
