To a stirred solution of 4-bromo-2-fluorobenzaldehyde (96%, 3.38 g, 16.0 mmol) in methanol (35 mL) at ambient temperature was added a 25 wt % solution of sodium methoxide in methanol (4.02 mL, 17.6 mmol), and the resulting solution was stirred and heated to reflux for 2 hours. The solution was cooled to ambient temperature and concentrated, and the residue was partitioned between dichloromethane (100 mL) and water (50 mL). The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel, eluting with 95/5 hexanes/ethyl acetate, to afford 4-bromo-2-methoxybenzaldehyde as a white solid (2.13 g, 62% yield).
