NaIO4 (19.0 g, 88.8 mmol, 0.50 equiv), I2 (49.0 g, 193 mmol, 1.10 equiv), and sulfuric acid (3 mL) were added to the reaction. The resulting mixture was stirred overnight at 110° C. After cooling to ambient temperature, the reaction was carefully quenched with 500 mL of Na2S2O3 (aq., sat.). The resulting solids were collected by filtration and then dissolved in 500 mL of ethyl acetate. The organic phase was washed with 2×200 mL of brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. This resulted in 20.0 g (38%) of 4-chloro-5-iodo-2-methylbenzoic acid as a white solid.
