Reaction Steps

Methyl 3-chloro-5-fluoro-6-trifluoromethyl-benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate 10d (180 mg, 0.58 mmol) was stirred with LiOH (55 mg, 2.3 mmol) in THF (5 mL) and H2O (2.5 mL) for 4 h. Aqueous 1N HCl solution was added to the mixture to adjust pH to 3˜4. The resulting mixture was extracted with EtOAc (2×). The organic solution was washed with aq. NaCl, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to give 10f (150 mg).
