Procedure

7-(4-Methylthiobenzoyl)-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-5-ylacetic acid (1.0 g) was heated at reflux in carbon tetrachloride (100 ml) containing n-bromosuccinimide (0.54 g) and a catalytic quantity of benzoyl peroxide. After approximately 2 hours the reaction mixture was cooled and extracted with dilute aqueous sodium carbonate. The aqueous extract was acidified with hydrochloric acid, extracted with ethyl acetate, dried and evaporated to yield a residue which was crystallized from acetone/hexane to give (7-(4-methylthiobenzoyl)benzofuran-5-ylacetic acid, m.p.--151°-153° C.
