     The compounds of formula I wherein R 4  is hydrogen are prepared using acids having the formula: ##STR7## as the starting material. Compounds of formula II are known; see, for example, Coll. Czech. Chem. Commun., 33, 1852 (1968), J. Org. Chem., 38, 20 (1973) and references cited therein. 
     The acid of formula II is converted to the corresponding acid chloride having the formula: ##STR8## using means well known in the art. For example, an acid of formula II may be reacted with either thionyl chloride, phosphorous trichloride, or phosphorous pentachloride.
