Procedure
2,6-Difluoro-3-(N-(3-fluoropropylsulfonyl)propylsulfonamido)benzoate (38 g, 120 mmol) was dissolved in 5:2 THF/MeOH (250 mL), and a solution of lithium hydroxide (8.77 g, 366 mmol) in water (50 mL) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for four hours. The majority of the organic solvents were then removed in vacuo. 2.5N HCl (500 mL) was slowly added to the mixture, and the resulting solid was filtered and rinsed with cold ether to give 2,6-difluoro-3-(3-fluoropropylsulfonamido)benzoic acid as a solid (29.3 g, 81% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3 ppm) 9.85 (s, 1H), 7.54 (dt, 1H), 7.21 (dt, 1H), 4.54 (td, 2H), 2.20-2.00 (m, 2H), 3.24-3.18 (m, 2H).
