In anhydrous conditions, Tetrac (5.0 g, 6.7 mmol, 1.0 eq.) was dissolved in anhydrous methanol (200 mL). To the solution was then added dropwise SOCl2 (485 μL, 6.7 mmol, 1.0 eq.). The reaction was set to reflux for 2 days. Water was then added to the reaction medium (200 mL) and then the solution was concentrated to yield a precipitate. The precipitate was then collected by vacuum filtration and then recrystallized to give orange crystals (3.10 g, 4.0 mmol) of methyl-2-(4-(4-hydroxy-3,5-diiodophenoxy)-3,5-diiodophenyl)acetate in 61% yield. Method B: In anhydrous conditions, Tetrac (1.0 g, 1.3 mmol, 1.0 eq.) was suspended in MeOH (20 mL). TEA (181.4 μL, 1.3 mmol, 1.0 eq.) was then added dropwise followed by benzylchloroformate (184.8 μL, 1.3 mmol, 1.0 eq.). After stirring for 30 minutes, the solution was filtered, the solvent was removed from the residue and the product was separated by silica gel chromatography (eluent=DCM). The collected fractions were then evaporated to give a white powder which was recrystallized to give orange crystals (990 mg, 1.3 mmol) of methyl-2-(4-(4-hydroxy-3,5-diiodophenoxy)-3,5-diiodophenyl)acetate in a quantitative yield.
