The solution is subsequently added to ice-water and extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined org. phases are washed with sat. sodium hydrogencarbonate soln. and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent is removed in vacuo, and the residue is distilled in a bulb tube at 170° C. and 0.3 mbar, giving 2-iodo-9,10-dihydrophenanthrene as yellow oil.
