Procedure
A steam of O3 was bubbled through a solution of 2-allyl-3,4-difluorobenzoic acid (13 g, 0.065 mol) in absolute CH2Cl2 (200 mL) at −78° C. until the mixture was turned blue. Then NaBH4 (7.25 g, 0.196 mol) in was added to the above mixture, and the final mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The solution was concentrated. Water was added at 0° C., and the mixture was acidified by adding 6 N HCl, and was extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to give 3,4-difluoro-2-(2-hydroxyethyl)benzoic acid (8.2 g, crude).
