Procedure

A solution of 16.1 g of 2-acetylamino-4-iodobenzoic acid (m.p. 233°-5° C; synthesized in accordance with U.S. Pat. No. 4,762,838) in 325 ml of absolute methanol is saturated at 0° C. with dry hydrogen chloride gas. The mixture is heated to the boil for 15 hours, cooled to room temperature, resaturated using dry hydrogen chloride gas, and allowed to stand at room temperature for 24 hours. The solvent is evaporated in vacuo, the residue is taken up in dichloromethane, and the organic phase is washed with a saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution until free from acid. The organic phase is dried over Na2 SO4, and evaporated in vacuo. This gives 13.8 g of methyl 2-amino-4-iodobenzoate of m.p. 63°-7° C.
