Procedure

To 1.92 g (11.9 mmol) 6-amino-3,4-dihydro-2H-naphthalen-1-one sulfate was added 20 mL water and 20 mL glacial acetic acid. The resulting solution was stirred in an ice bath and a solution of 1.72 grams (25 mmoles) sodium nitrite in 15 mL water was added dropwise over 0.5 hour. The reaction mixture was slowly poured into a well stirred solution of 8 grams (48 mmoles) potassium iodide in 80 mL water. The mixture was extracted with diethyl ether, and the organic phase was washed with water, saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen sulfite, and saturated aqueous sodium chloride. The organic phase was dried (magnesium sulfate) and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to low pressure column chromatography over silica gel 230-400 mesh eluting with 5% ethyl acetate in hexane. 6-Iodo-3,4-dihydro-2H-naphthalen-1-one was obtained as a white solid, 3.12 grams (94%), m.p. 77-78°.
