Triphenylphosphine (6.23 g, 23.8 mmol), iodine (6.03 g, 23.8 mmol) and imidazole (1.57 g, 23.8 mmol) were added sequentially to a solution of (4-hydroxy-but-2-ynyloxy)-acetic acid methyl ester (3.13 g, 19.8 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (30 mL). After 1 h at rt, the reaction was filtered through activity I basic alumina, washing with 20% EtOAc/Hexane. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo then purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel (Hexane→20% EtOAc/Hexane, gradient) to afford 2.05 g (39%) of (4-iodo-but-2-ynyloxy)-acetic acid methyl ester.
