The above prepared 5-methoxy-benzofuran-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (8.10 g, 36.8 mmol) was dissolved in 250 mL of CH2Cl2, cooled to 0° C., and treated with BBr3 (73.6 mL of 1M solution in CH2Cl2, 2 eq.). After 2 h, the reaction mixture was carefully poured onto crashed ice, twofold extracted with CH2Cl2, washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and evaporated to dryness. Ensuing flash chromatography (SiO2, hexane/AcOEt=8/2) delivered then 5.63 g of the title compound as off-white crystals.
