Procedure

At 0-5° C., oxalyl dichloride (25.7 g, 202.36 mmol, 3.00 equiv.) was added to a mixture of (E)-3-(3,4-difluorophenyl)acrylic acid (12.4 g, 67.38 mmol, 1.00 equiv.), N,N-dimethylformamide (1 mL), and dichloromethane (150 mL). The solution was stirred at ambient temperature for about 2 hours, and then concentrated in vacuo to give the title product, which was used in the next step without any further purification.
