Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-Carbamoyl-5-methoxybenzo[b]thiophene (2.0 g), acetic acid (5 ml) and 48% hydrobromic acid (20 ml) was stirred for 16 hours at 110° C., and the mixture was poured into the ice-water. The resulting precipitate was collected by filtration, and dried to give 5-Hydroxybenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid (1.66 g).
