Procedure

To a solution of 3-bromo-5-iodo-benzoic acid (D7) (50 g, 153 mmol, 1 equiv) in CH2Cl2 (500 ml) was added 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethyl-carbodiimide hydrochloride (30.8 g, 160 mmol, 1.05 equiv), DMAP (14 g, 114 mmol, 0.75 equiv) and tert-butanol (90 ml, 917 mmol, 6 equiv). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 48 h. DMAP (4.67 g, 38 mmol, 0.25 equiv) was then added and the solution was stirred for another 24 h then concentrated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in AcOEt and washed sequentially with 2N aqueous HCl solution, 1N aqueous NaOH solution and brine, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo to give 3-bromo-5-iodo-benzoic acid tert-butyl ester (D8b) (50.6 g, 86%) as a brown solid.
