Procedure

To a mixture of 4-bromo-7-methoxy-2-methylfuro[2,3-c]pyridine (3.0 g, 12.4 mmol) in DCM (30 mL) was stirred at 0° C. under an atmosphere of nitrogen was added BBr3 (15.5 g, 62.0 mmol) dropwise. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 3 h. The mixture was concentrated in vacuo to afford the title compound (2.50 g, 88%). The material was immediately used in the next step without any further purification. LCMS (M+H)+=229.
