Procedure
To a solution of 4-methylaniline (53.5 g, 500 mmol) in DCM (200 mL) was added a solution of NaHCO3 (50.4 g) in water (500 mL), and then I2(127 g) was added. The mixture was stirred at rt overnight. The mixture was treated with aqueous NaHSO3 and extracted with DCM. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, and then concentrated in vacuo to afford the product as brown oil (110 g, yield 95%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.48 (dd, J=1.8 & 0.6 Hz, 1H), 6.96 (dd, J=8.1 & 1.8 Hz, 1H), 6.67 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 1H), 3.98 (bs, 2H), 2.22 (s, 3H) ppm.
