Procedure
To a solution of 2-(2-chloro-5-methoxy-4-nitrophenyl)ethanol (0.85 g, 3.67 mmol) in DCM (20 mL), triphenylphosphine (1.54 g, 5.9 mmol) and carbon tetrabromide (1.46 g, 4.4 mmol) were added. The reaction mixture was maintained for 7 hours at room temperature then partitioned between water (50 mL) and EtOAc (80 mL). The separated aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (80 mL), then the combined organic extracts were dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated under reduced pressure. The product was purified by column chromatography on neutral silica gel using 5-15% EtOAc in hexane to give the title compound (0.9 g, 83%) as a solid.
