Procedure

3.33 g (10 mmol) of 9-bromo-10-phenylanthracene was dissolved in 80 ml of tetrahydrofuran (abbrev.: THF). After bringing the temperature to −78° C., 7.5 ml (12.0 mmol) of n-BuLi (1.6M) was added to the reaction solution dropwise with a dropping funnel, and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour. A solution of 5 g (20.0 mmol) of iodine dissolved in 20 ml of THF was added dropwise, and the mixture was stirred for another 2 hours at −78° C. After the reaction, a sodium thiosulfate solution was added and the reaction was stopped. The organic layer was washed with a sodium thiosulfate solution and a saturated saline solution, and dried with magnesium sulfate. After natural filtration, the filtrate was concentrated, and the solid obtained was recrystallized with ethanol. The target substance of 9-iodo-10-phenylanthracene was obtained as a pale yellow solid, weighing 3.1 g in a yield of 83% (synthesis scheme (j-5)).
