A mixture of 4-bromobenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid (21.05 g), copper powder (7.0 g) and quinoline (170 ml) was stirred at 180-190° C. for 1 hour, allowed to cool to ambient temperature and poured into 2M hydrochloric acid (900 ml). Ethyl acetate (500 ml) was added, the mixture was stirred for 15 minutes, then it was filtered through Celite. The aqueous phase was separated and shaken with ethyl acetate (200 ml), then the combined ethyl acetate solutions were washed with water (500 ml) and saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution (500 ml), dried (Na2SO4), and the solvents were removed in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatography over silica using petroleum ether (b.p. 60-80° C.) as eluant. Appropriate fractions were combined and the solvents removed in vacuo to give 4-bromobenzo[b]thiophene (9.55 g) as a colourless oil which was used without further purification.
