Procedure

A mixture of 3.69 g of compound D and 1.95 g of powdered potassium hydroxide in 30 cc of ethanol and 4 cc of water was heated under reflux for 6 hours. After cooling, ice water was added and the resulting mixture was washed with hexane. The aqueous layer was acidified with 1N HCl, and extracted with chloroform, which was then dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off to obtain 3.14 g of 3-(2-chlorophenyl)-5-fluorobenzofuran-2-carboxylic acid. Yield: 93.3%.
