A slurry of 3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (16 gm) sodium hydroxide (3.5 gm), potassium iodide (10.3 gm), potassium in distilled water (91 ml) was added dropwise during 20 mins to a stirred solution of ethanol (69 ml), water (15 ml) and and concentrated sulphuric acid (7.5 ml) at 50°-55° C. After addition, the mixture was refluxed for 1 hour. Sodium metabisulphite (1 gm) was added to the mixture and on cooling a precipitate formed. The precipitate was collected and recrystallised from petroleum ether to give 3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-5-iodobenzaldehyde (24.8 gm) m.p. 124°.
