Procedure

2-(3-Bromo-5-chloro-phenyl)-malonic acid dimethyl ester (19 g, 59 mmol) in MeOH (500 mL) was treated with 1N aqueous NaOH (237 mL, 237 mmol) at 50° C. for 1.5 hours. The mixture was concentrated, and the residue was acidified and extracted twice with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were dried, filtered, and concentrated to give the title compound.
