Procedure
A solution of 1-(4-chloro-phenyl)-2-(2-hydroxy-ethylamino)-1-(4-iodo-phenyl)-ethanol (701 mg, 1.68 mmol) in DCM (10 mL) was treated with concentrated H2SO4 (0.1 mL, 1.9 mmol). After 20 hours, another portion of H2SO4 (1.0 mL, 19 mmol) was added and the mixture stirred for a further 2 hours. The mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with saturated potassium carbonate and brine then dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography (SiO2), eluting with 0.5% triethylamine in ethyl acetate to afford the title compound (290 mg, 43%); LCMS (PS-A2) Rt 2.40 min [M+H]+ 400.
