Procedure
Eleven grams of the 3-acetylbenzothiophene from above was dissolved in 80 ml of pyridine and warmed to 60° C. To the reaction mixture were added portionwise 9.92 g of selenium dioxide. The reaction mixture was warmed to 120° C. and then cooled to 90° C. and stirred at that temperature for forty-five minutes. The mixture was next added to 80 ml of water, and the pyridine solvent was then removed by evaporation. The aqueous mixture was acidified to pH 2.0 with phosphoric acid, and the product was extracted into diethyl ether. Removal of the solvent by evaporation and crystallization of the product from benzene gave 3.85 g of 3-benzothienylglycolic acid. m.p. 89°-91° C.
