Procedure

To a solution of 2,3-dihydro-benzofuran-2-carboxylic acid (510 mg, 3.11 mmol) in glacial acetic acid (4 mL) is added bromine (497 mg, 3.11 mmol) dropwise. After 16 hours, the reaction is quenched with water (100 mL) and sodium bisulfite (1 g, 9.6 mmol) and extracted twice with EtOAc (100 mL). The extracts are concentrated in vacuo and dried under high vacuum to afford 5-bromo-2,3-dihydro-benzofuran-2-carboxylic acid (811 mg) as a solid. MS: 241 (M+H), 1H NMR [300 MHz, (CD3)2SO]: δ 13.05 (1H, s); 7.4 (1H, s); 7.25 (1H, d); 6.8 (1H, m); 5.25 (1H, q), 3.55 (1H, dd); 3.25 (1H, m).
