Procedure
In 200 ml of a mixed solvent of diethyl ether-water (3:1) was dissolved 10.0 g of 4-acetoxy-3,5-di-t-butyl-2-(2-methyl-2-propenyl)phenol synthesized according to the procedure described in JP 7-330759/95 and combined with 5.3 g of sodium bicarbonate and 12.0 g of iodine, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 20 minutes. Then, the reaction mixture was combined with a saturated aqueous sodium thiosulfate solution and extracted with ethyl acetate, and the organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and then concentrated to give 13.2 g of 5-acetoxy-4,6-di-t-butyl-2-iodomethyl-2-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran (rotamer mixture) as a colorless oil (yield 95%).
