Procedure

Using the procedure of B, Gaux and D. LeHenaff, Bull. Soc. Chem. Fr., 34, 505 (1974), 2,3,5-triiodobenzoic acid (Aldrich) was treated with lithium aluminum hydride to give 3,5-diiodobenzyl alcohol with m.p. of 136.5°-140° (literature 137°). Using the procedure outlined in Example 4, 3,5-diiodobenzyl alcohol was treated with n-hexyl chloroformate giving s in Table I (ND25 =1.5800).
