4-(Trifluoromethyl)aniline → 2-Iodo-4-(trifluoromethyl)aniline

Preparation B5, Step 1: To a solution of 4-(trifluoromethyl)benzenamine (10.0 g, 0.0617 mol) in dry methanol (200 ml) was added iodine monochloride (10.49 g, 0.148 mol) in dry MDC (40 ml) at RT slowly. Reaction mixture was stirred at RT over night. The reaction mixture was concentrated, water was added and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×100 ml). The organic layer was washed with water, brine (2×50 ml), dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated. The crude product was purified by column chromatography using 6% ethyl acetate in pet-ether to get 2-iodo-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzenamine (12.5 g, 70%) as pale yellow liquid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 4.42 (bs, 2H), 6.75 (d, 1H), 7.38 (d, 1H), 7.87 (s, 1H).
