Procedure

To a solution of the azaindole 25 (18.30 g, 63.9 mmol) in DMF (100 mL) was added KOH (13.27 g, 236.5 mmol) in a single portion. After 0.5 h, iodine (16.18 g, 63.9 mmol) was added in portions over a 3 min. period. After a further 1 h the reaction was quenched by the addition of a solution of sodium thiosulfate (70 g) in H2O (400 mL). The semisolid was filtered off, dissolved in dichloromethane. The solution and washed with saturated brine (1×), dried (MgSO4), and concentrated to afford the iodide 26, which was used directly in the next step without further purification. 1H NMR (400 MHz; CDCl3) δ6.92-6.95 (m, 2H), 7.01 (tt, J=7.3, 1.0 Hz, 1H), 7.08 (dd, J=8.1, 1.3 Hz, 1H), 7.23-7.30 (m, 3H), 7.36 (dt, J=7.3, 1.8 Hz, 1H), 7.40 (s, H), 7.54 (dd, J=7.6, 1.8 Hz, 1H), 7.93 (d, J=2.0 Hz, 1H), 8.54 (d, J=2.0 Hz, 1H) and 11.06 (bs, 1H).
