Participants

Reaction Steps

To a cooled (0° C.), yellow suspension of 4-iodo-3-nitroaniline (8.46 g, 32.0 mmol) in DCM (320 mL) and pyridine (2.85 mL, 35.2 mmol) was added methyl chloroformate (2.61 mL, 33.6 mmol) dropwise. The reaction mixture turned to light yellow solution and stirring was continued for 1.5 h. After 1.5 h, the reaction mixture was diluted with DCM, washed with saturated NaHCO3 solution followed by brine. The organic layers were dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated to obtain a residue. The residue was then dissolved in DCM (˜100 mL), then hexane (600 mL) was added to give a yellow suspension. The above suspension was filtered and the filtered solid was rinsed with hexane and air-dried to obtain the desired product as yellow solid (10.3 g, 100%). MS (ESI) m/z: 321.3 (M−H)+.
