Procedure

Reaction Scheme 5 illustrates the synthesis of 4-(4-Iodophenyl)resorcinol (31). 2,4-Dimethoxyphenylboronic acid and 1-bromo-4-nitrobenzene in the presence of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) palladium yielded 4-(4-nitrophenyl)-2,4-methoxybenzene (28). Hydrogenation of 28 in the presence of a palladium catalyst yielded the crude amine (29) which without purification was diazotized and treated with KI solution to yield the desired 4-(4-iodophenyl-2,4-dimethoxybenzene (30). The dimethoxy analog (30) was treated with boron tribromide to yield the desired 4-(4-iodophenyl)resorcinol (31).
