A 200 mL round bottom flask was charged with tert-butyl 2,2-difluoro-2-(3-methoxyquinolin-6-yl)acetate (5.06 g, 16 mmol) then CH2Cl2, then trifluoroacetic acid (16 ml, 213 mmol) followed by triethylsilane (6.5 ml, 41 mmol). The solution was maintained at rt for 24 h until LCMS showed disappearance of starting material. The solution was concentrated and was subjected to high vacuum for 40 h to give 4.1 g (99% yield) of 2,2-difluoro-2-(3-methoxyquinolin-6-yl)acetic acid as a brown solid. The material was of sufficient purity for use in subsequent steps.
