Procedure

To a solution of 3-iodo-2-hydroxy-benzaldehyde (4.0 g, 16.06 mmol) in DMA (32 mL) was added cesium carbonate (5.85 g, 18 mmol) followed by methyl iodide (1.12 mL, 18 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred for 4.75 hours then diluted with ether, washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was purified by silica chromatography (50 g silica; eluted with 0-20% ethyl acetate in hexanes) to give the title compound as an oil.
