2-Fluoro-4-methylbenzoicacid Use and Manufacturing

Step A: 1-Fluoro-3-methyl-benzene (compound 1g; 18.7 g, 170 mmol) was added to a three neck 500 mL flask and cooled to -78 C. Next, solution of potassium t-butoxide (11.0 g, 170 mmol) in THF was added slowly by syringe. After 10 minutes, t-BuLi (19.0 g, 170 mmol) in pentane was added slowly by cannula under nitrogen to the reaction. After 2.5 hours of stirring, the reaction was quenched with large amount of crushed fresh dry ice, taken off the -78 C. bath and manually stirred with a metal spatula to turn the dark brown material into a much lighter yellow slurry. After 20 minutes of mixing by hand, about 500 mL of water were added and reaction mixture was stirred. The reaction mixture was then washed With Et2O and then acidified with 6 N HCl to pH less than 3 and extracted with Et2O. The organic was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4 filtered and concentrated to yield 10 gm (45percent yield) of compound 2g. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) d 7.90 (t, 1H), 7.04 (d, 1H), 6.97 (d, 1H), 2.39 (s, 3H).
