Procedure

In a round-bottomed flask, (6-fluoro-imidazo[1,5-a]pyridin-3-yl)-methanol (225 mg, 1.15 mmol) was dissolved in ethanol (2 ml) and water (1 ml). Sodium bicarbonate (341 mg, 4.06 mmol) was added followed by iodine (383 mg, 1.51 mmol). The dark brown suspension was stirred at room temperature for 3 h then quenched with 10% Na2S2O3-solution and extracted with EtOAc (2×). The organic layers were washed with water and brine then dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue was absorbed on silica gel and chromatographed with EtOAc/hexanes (gradient 0-40% EtOAc) to provide 157 mg (50%, 2 steps) of (6-fluoro-1-iodo-imidazo[1,5-a]pyridin-3-yl)-methanol as a light yellow solid.
