To a solution of 2-methoxy-6-methylsulfonylnaphthalene (0.93 g, 3.93 mmol), [prepared as described in step 2 above], in 1,2-dichloroethane (40 ml) was added 4-fluorobenzoyl chloride (0.93 ml, 7.87 mmol) and aluminum chloride (1.05 g, 7.87 mmol) and the reaction mixture was heated at reflux. After 16 h, the reaction mixture was poured in 2N HCl and extracted into methylene chloride. The organic layer was separated and washed with water and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the crude product was purified by flash chromatography (gradient elution 10-60% ethyl acetate/ hexanes) to give 1.2 g of 5-(4-fluorobenzoyl)-6-hydroxy-2-methylsulfonyl-naphthalene as a tan solid (89% yield).
