Procedure

To a solution of 3-(4-bromo-phenyl)-2-cyano-3-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-propionic acid ethyl ester (2.4 g) in acetic acid (11 mL) was added water (6 mL) and concentrated H2SO4 (6.83 mL) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was heated to 120° C. overnight, then cooled and poured on ice and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×100 mL). The organic layers were washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The crude reaction product was purified by silica gel chromatography using a MPLC system (CombiFlash Companion, Isco Inc.) eluting with a gradient of n-heptane/ethyl acetate (1:0 to 1:1) to provide the title compound as an off-white solid. MS (ESI−): m/z=339.0 ([M−H]−).
