Procedure
2-Fluoro-4-hydroxy-5-isopropyloxybenzoic acid (5.7 g) is dissolved in methanol (200 mL) and concentrated sulfuric acid (1 mL) and heated at 70° C. for 5 hours. The solution is concentrated and the resultant oil subjected to mplc on silica gel using petroleum ether: ethyl acetate (4:1 v/v) as eluent to give methyl-2-fluoro-4-hydroxy-5-isopropyloxybenzoate (5.7 g). [NMR (CDCl3) 7.38 (d, 1H, J=7 Hz), 6.67 (d, 1H, J=12 Hz), 4.85 (m, 1H), 3.9 (s, 3H), 1.3 (d, 6H, J=7 Hz)].
