Procedure

To a solution of sodium ethoxide (123 g, 362 mmol) in ethanol (300 mL) at 0° C. was added a solution of diethyl oxalate (49.4 mL, 362 mmol) in ethanol (25 mL) and the resulting solution was stirred for 10 min. 1-(3-Fluorophenyl)ethanone (50 g, 362 mmol) in ethanol (25 mL) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 h. Ethanol was distilled off under reduced pressure and the residue obtained was quenched with ice cold water and the brown product was filtered. This crude product was purified by ISCO using 220 g silica gel column and 20% ethyl acetate in hexane as eluent. The combined fractions were concentrated to afford Intermediate 4A (62.5 g, 73%). MS(ES): m/z=239 [M+H]+; 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 15.13 (bs, 1H), 7.77-7.83 (m, 1H), 7.67-7.73 (m, 1H), 7.51 (td, J=8.03, 5.48 Hz, 1H), 7.29-7.37 (m, 1H), 7.28 (s, 1H), 4.43 (q, J=7.18 Hz, 2H), 1.40-1.47 (m, 3H).
