Procedure
A solution of 3-methylbenzo[b]thiophene-6-carboxylic acid (3.65 g) in methanol (100 ml) was saturated with hydrogen chloride gas and the solution was heated under reflux for 4 hours, and then evaporated. The residue was dissolved in ether and the solution was washed with water, sodium bicarbonate solution and dried (Na2SO4). Evaporation of the solvent gave 3-methylbenzo[b]thiophene-6-carboxylic acid methyl ester (3.70 g) pure enough for further reaction. A sample crystallized from petrol (b.p. 40°-60°) had m.p. 46°-47° C.
