Iodine (511 mg, 2.015 mmol) and silver sulfate (628 mg, 2.015 mmol) were added and the reaction was stirred vigorously at room temperature, protected from light, for 1 hour. The reaction was diluted with ethyl acetate (75 mL) and filtered to remove solids. The filtrate was washed with sodium bisulfite (2×50 mL), water (70 mL), and brine (70 mL). The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel with 0 to 50% ethyl acetate/hexanes. Further purification by SFC on a chiral AD column with 15% IPA/heptanes removed a minor regioisomer and separated the two enantiomers of ethyl (6-iodo-5-methoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-yl)acetate. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz) δ 7.55 (s, 1H), 6.72 (s, 1H), 4.17 (m, 2H), 3.85 (s, 3H), 3.53 (m, 1H), 2.95-2.65 (m, 3H), 2.60-2.42 (m, 2H), 1.78 (m, 1H), 1.28 (t, J=7.1 Hz, 3H).
