Procedure

7-iodo-10b-methyl-5,6-dihydro-2H-oxazolo[2,3-a]isoquinoline-2,3(10bH)-dione. A solution of N-(2-iodophenethyl)acetamide (16.0 g, 55.3 mmol) in DCM (600 mL) under N2, was treated dropwise with (COCl)2 (5.33 mL, 60.9 mmol). The reaction was stirred at RT for 45 min and then cooled to 0° C. FeCl3 (10.8 g, 66.4 mmol) was then added and the mixture was allowed to slowly warm to RT and stirred at RT for 18 h. An aq. solution of 2N HCl (50 mL) was added and the mixture was stirred for 2 h. The organic phase was separated, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to provide the title compound as a brown solid (20.8 g) that was used as it is in the next step. UPLC-MS: MS 344.3 (M+H+); UPLC rt 1.10 min.
