Procedure

67.2 g (0.48 mol) of potassium carbonate are added to a solution of 100 g (0.40 mol) of 2-hydroxy-5-iodobenzaldehyde (Example 1A) in 1.5 l of dimethylformamide and, after a few minutes, 51 ml (0.44 mol) of benzyl chloride are added. The reaction mixture is stirred under reflux at 120° C. for 24 h. After stirring at RT for a further 24 h and the addition of 1.5 l of water, a solid crystallizes out. The precipitate is collected by suction filtration, washed twice with water and dried in vacuo. The solid is recrystallized from 230 ml of ethanol. 122.9 g (90% of theory) of product are obtained.
