Participants

Reaction Steps

Into a flask containing 4-(3,5-dimethylisoxazol-4-yl)-2-iodo-6-nitroaniline (1000 mg, 2.78 mmol, 1 equiv) is added DMF (15 mL, 0.2 M) before adding cesium carbonate (1.4 gm, 4.17 mmol, 1.5 equiv.) and idomethane (260 μL, 4.17 mmol, 1.5 equiv). After an hour, the reaction was quenched with water and the reaction was partitioned between water and ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with brine and dried over sodium sulfate. Purification was carried out by flash column chromatography to furnish 4-(3,5-dimethylisoxazol-4-yl)-2-iodo-N-methyl-6-nitroaniline (615 mg, 60%).
