Procedure

A solution of 7-chloro-5-fluoro-1H-indole-2,3-dione (270 mg) in 1 M sodium hydroxide solution (5 mL) was treated with 30% hydrogen peroxide (5 mL) via dropwise addition. After one hour of stirring, the reaction was acidified with HCl to pH 1, and extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried with sodium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo to provide 200 mg of 2-amino-3-chloro-5-fluoro-benzoic acid.
