Procedure

To a solution of 5,6-difluoro-1H-indole (1.0 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (10 mL) was added phosphoryl chloride (1.2 g) at 0° C., and this mixture was stirred at room temperature for 4 hours. To this mixture was added 2 mol/L aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (5 mL), and this resulting mixture was stirred at 70° C. for 0.5 hours. After cooling to ambient temperature, this mixture was poured into 1 mol/L hydrochloric acid and the resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water and brine, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give the title compound (1.1 g).
