Procedure
To a solution of 5-Iodo-2-isopropyl-1,3-dimethoxy-benzene (805 mg, 2.63 mmol) in anhydrous dichloromethane (26 mL) at 0° C. was added boron tribromide (2.63 mL, 2.63 mmol) 1M in dichloromethane), maintaining the temperature of the reaction at 0° C. during the addition. After stirring at room temperature for 18 hours, water (10 mL) was slowly added to the reaction. After stirring 30 minutes, the dichloromethane layer was collected, dried using anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification of the residue by silica gel column chromatography eluting with 90/10 hexane/ethyl acetate yielded 5-Iodo-2-isopropyl-3-methoxy-phenol (612 mg, 80%) as an oil, MS (M+H)=293.
