Lithium amide in liquid ammonia is prepared as described by Unangst P. C., Carethers M. E., J. Heterocyclic. Chem. 21, 709 (1984), from lithium metal ribbon (0.16 g, 23 mmol). A solution of methyl 3-amino-4-methoxybenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate (1.3 g, 5.5 mmol) [Beck J. R., supra] in 10 mL of tetrahydrofuran is added dropwise. The mixture is stirred for 18 hours as the excess ammonia is permitted to evaporate. The residue is treated with 250 g of ice and water. The solid product is filtered, washed with water, and recrystallized from aqueous ethanol to yield 0.70 g (58%) of product; mp=151°-153° C.
