Procedure

4-Bromo-2-cyclopentylphenol (10.0 g, 41.47 mmol) and DMAP (253 mg, 2.07 mmol) was dissolved in dichloromethane (50 mL) and triethylamine (11.6 mL, 82.94 mmol), cooled to 0° C. and treated with methyl chloroformate (4.8 mL, 62.20 mmol). The reaction was allowed to warm to room temperature over 2 h. The reaction was quenched with water, the layers separated, and the aqueous layer re-extracted with dichloromethane. The combined organic extracts were dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to yield an oil that was purified by silica gel chromatography (20% ethyl acetate/hexane) to yield 4-bromo-2-cyclopentylphenyl methyl carbonate (10.5 g, 85% yield). 1H NMR (400.0 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.52 (d, J=2.4 Hz, 1H), 7.44 (dd, J=2.4, 8.6 Hz, 1H), 7.22-7.17 (m, 1H), 3.84 (s, 3H), 3.07-2.98 (m, 1H), 1.95-1.88 (m, 2H), 1.79-1.71 (m, 2H), 1.66-1.46 (m, 4H).
