To 120 mg of 5,7-dichloro-4-hydroxy-3-methyl-benzofuran-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester was added 1 mL of iodomethane, 200 mg of K2CO3 and 4 mL of DMF. The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The mixture was washed with brine and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined ethyl acetate solution was washed with brine. Removal of the solvent in vacuo gave 125 mg (99% yield) of 5,7-dichloro-4-methoxy-3-methyl-benzofuran-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester as off-white solid.
