A stirred solution of 3-chlorosulfonyl-4-methoxybenzoic acid (58 g; that is prepared as described in Reference Example 44) in glacial acetic acid (250 mL) at 40° C. is treated during 15 minutes with a solution of stannous chloride (107 g) in concentrated hydrochloric acid. The mixture is heated at reflux for 2 hours and the hot mixture is then poured into water (2 L) with vigorous stirring. The resulting solid is filtered off and dried, to give crude 3-mercapto-4-methoxybenzoic acid (34 g).
