Procedure

To a stirred solution of 4-iodo-N-(3-methoxy-4-((4-methoxybenzyl)oxy)benzyl)-2-nitroaniline (9.10 g, 17.49 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (50 mL), ethanol (50 mL), and water (10 mL) was added ammonium chloride (7.48 g, 139.9 mmol) and iron (II) sulfate heptahydrate (14.59 g, 52.47 mmol). The bright orange suspension was treated with zinc (3.43 g, 52.47 mmol). The mixture was gradually warmed to reflux. After 3.5 h, the color of the reaction mixture had turned from orange to olive-green. At this point the recation mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature. The mixture was filtered through Celite, and the filtercake was washed with methanol. The filtrate concentrated, the residue was suspended in water. The aqueous mixture was extracted with chloroform (×3). The combined organic phases were dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated to afford 8.32 g (97%) of 4-iodo-N1-(3-methoxy-4-((4-methoxybenzyl)oxy)benzyl)benzene-1,2-diamine as a tan solid.
