Procedure
61.5 g of 2.5% sodium amalgam was added in portions to a mixture of 6.7 g of 18A, 270 ml of tetrahydrofuran and 90 ml of ethanol. The mixture was stirred for 20 hours at room temperature. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in 1 liter of hot water containing 4 ml of saturated sodium hydroxide solution. The mixture was filtered, the filtrate was cooled with an ice bath, and acidified to pH=2. The mixture was stirred for 30 minutes, the resulting solid was collected, washed with water and dried (reduced pressure, P2O5, refluxing acetone) to give 2,3-dihydro-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-benzofurancarboxylic acid (18B), mp: 147°-149° C.
