Reaction Steps

2 g (7.2 mmol) of 4-methylsulfonyl-3-fluoro-2-methylthiomethylbenzoic acid were refluxed in 20 g (0.266 mol) of a 60% strength 2-methoxyethylamine solution in water for four days. The cold solution was acidified with concentrated HCl to a pH of 1 and extracted with EE. The organic solution was dried with MgSO4 and concentrated to completion. This gives a brown oil.
