Participants

Reaction Steps

1-(4-amino-3-iodophenyl)ethanone was prepared according to method D Step I with Iodine (2.82 g; 11.10 mmol) silver sulphate (3.46 g; 11.10 mmol) and 1-(4-aminophenyl)ethanone (1.50 g; 11.10 mmol) in ethanol (40 mL). The crude residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (eluent 2 to 40% ethyl acetate in heptane) to yield 0.514 g (18%) of 1-(4-amino-3-iodophenyl)ethanone as a pale yellow solid.
