Procedure

Sodium hydroxide (pellets, 110 g, 2.75 mol, 3.00 eq) was added portionwise to the vigorously stirring aqueous solution of the 4-hydroxy-3-iodo-benzenesulfonic acid. After addition was complete, 10-15 min., isopropyl alcohol (150 mL) was added to the resulting white suspension. The dropping-funnel was charged with benzyl bromide (Aldrich; 164.9 g, 0.964 mol, 1.05 eq.) and added to the reaction mixture over a period of approx. 5 mins. and the reaction mixture was heated to 80°≦Tint≦84° C. After approx. 25 min. it was determined that the reaction was not proceeding further and therefore additional sodium hydroxide (3.67 g, 91.8 mmol, 0.1 eq.) and then benzyl bromide (15.7 g, 91.8 mmol, 0.1 eq.) were added to the reaction mixture to give a homogenous solution. After 70 min. from the original benzyl bromide addition, the heating was stopped and the reaction was allowed to cool slowly in the oil-bath with stirring. At 7.5 h, the reaction mixture appeared as a suspension of fine-reflective precipitate in brown liquid. The reaction mixture was acidified with 3:1 water-sulfuric acid from about pH 13 to between pH 7.5 and 8 (approx. 70 mL is required). The reaction mixture was then cooled gradually to about 5° C. and stirred at that temperature for ˜1 h. The waxy white plaques were collected by filtration, washed with dichloromethane and dried under high vacuum (lyophilizer, 100-200 mTorr) for ˜24 h to give sodium 4-benzyloxy-3-iodo-benzenesulfonate as a brilliant white, crystalline solid, (267.7 g, 71%).
