Reaction Steps

A mixture containing 0.68 mmol 5-Hydroxy-1,3-dihydro-isoindole-2-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (CAS: 226070-47-9), 0.68 mmol potassium carbonate and 0.68 mmol ethyl chlorodifluoroacetate in 1.5 ml DMF was stirred overnight at 65° C. The mixture was then partitioned between ethyl acetate and water and the organic phase was then separated, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel (eluant: n-heptane/ethylacetate) to afford the title compound as a white solid (40% yield).
