Procedure

Into a 2000 mL 3-necked round-bottom flask, was placed a solution of 6-nitroisobenzofuran-1(3H)-one (prepared as described in the previous step, 136 g, 759.78 mmol, 1.00 equiv) in water (50 mL), Fe (126.4 g), ethyl acetate (500 mL), acetic acid (180 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred for 2 h at 60° C. in an oil bath. The resulting mixture was added sodium bicarbonate 500 mL. The resulting solution was extracted with 5×500 mL of ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was washed with 500 mL of brine, dried (Na2SO4), and concentrated under vacuum. The title compound was obtained as a yellow solid.
