Procedure

A mixture of 2,4,6-triiodophenol (2.0 g, 4.24 mmol), 2-propylvaleroyl chloride (2.5 ml, 12.7 mmol, 3 eq) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP; 20 mg) in 20 ml of acetonitrile was refluxed under argon overnite. The reaction mixture was cooled and poured into excess aqueous sodium bicarbonate and then extracted with dichloromethane. The dichloromethane extract was dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated to give the crude product (2.42 mmol, 95%) as a pink solid. Recrystallization from ethyl acetate gave 1.75 g (68%) of pure product, mp 99°-101° C.
