Procedure

To a methanol (45 mL) solution of 2-(5-(4-fluoro-benzyl)-furan-2-yl)-[1,3]dioxolane (4.51 g, 18.2 mmol) described in Manufacturing Example 208-1-1 was added a solution (45 mL) of citric acid (12.2 g, 63.7 mmol), which was vigorously stirred for 1 hour at room temperature. This mixture was partitioned into ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was separated, washed with a saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate aqueous solution, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under a reduced pressure to obtain the title compound (4.51 g, 51%). The title compound was used in the following reaction without any further purification.
