n-Butyllithium (364 μl, 0.909 mmol) was slowly added to a solution of 2-chloro-5-iodo-1-isopropoxy-3-methoxybenzene (3) (270 mg, 0.827 mmol) in anhydrous THF (5 mL) at −78° C. After stirring for 15 min at this temperature a solution of methyl 4-isocyanatobenzoate (176 mg, 0.992 mmol) in anhydrous THF (5 mL) was added dropwise. The solution was allowed to warm to RT and stirred for a further 20 h. The reaction mixture was partitioned between DCM (40 mL) and brine (100 mL). The phases were separated and the organic solution was dried over MgSO4, filtered and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (40 g, 0-40% EtOAc in isohexane) to afford methyl 4-(4-chloro-3-isopropoxy-5-methoxybenzamido)benzoate (5) (20 mg, 6%) as a colourless oil: m/z 376 [M−H]− (ES−).
