Procedure
To a suspension of (Z)-5-fluoro-2-methyl-1-(4-methylthiobenzylidene)inden-3-ylacetic acid (5.0 g, 14.7 mmol) in methylene chloride (50 mL) at room temperature there was added oxalyl chloride (2.8 g, 22 mmol) and DMF (2 drops) and the mixture stirred for 1 hour; the solution was evaporated and the crude acid chloride flushed twice with carbon tetrachloride (20 mL) then suspended in carbon tetrachloride (25 mL) and trimethylsilyl azide (2.53 g, 22 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 minutes, then gently heated on a steam bath as nitrogen was evolved. The heating was continued until gas evolution ceased, then the mixture was evaporated to afford the crude title compound as an oil which was used as such in the next step.
