To a stirred solution of 2-(7-methoxy-1-benzofuran-3-yl)ethanol (960 mg, 5 mmol) in anhydrous THF (50 ml), triphenylphosphine (1.572 g, 6 mmol), iodine (1.518 g, 6 mmol) and imidazole (408 mg, 6 mmol) were added at room temperature. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 4 hrs and quenched with water. The mixture was then extracted with chloroform, washed well with 5% Na2S2O3 solution and the organic layer dried over anhydrous MgSO4. It was then filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by silica-gel column chromatography by eluting it with 30% ethyl acetate:hexane. The product, 2-(7-methoxy-1-benzofuran-3-yl)ethyl iodide, was obtained as a brown liquid. Yield: 1.3 g (86%); (M+H): 302.
