Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 1-(4-iodophenyl)cyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (7.98 g, 27 mmol) in methylene chloride (200 mL) containing DMF (0.25 mL) was added dropwise over 30 minutes oxalyl chloride (3.2 mL). The mixture was stirred for 1 hour, and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was taken up in THF (100 mL), and potassium t butoxide (1 M in THF, 35 mL) was added. After 30 minutes, the mixture was diluted with hexane, washed with water, dried, filtered and evaporated. The solid residue was recrystallized from methanol to give t butyl 1-(4-iodophenyl)cyclopropane-1-carboxylate (5.74 g, 16.6 mmol, 62%).
