synthesis of 2-(2-Iodo)phenyl-N,N-dimethylacetamide: A round-bottom flask was charged with phenyl acetic acid (0.867 g, 3.32 mmol), dimethylammonium hydrochloride (0.245 g, 3 mmol), and HBTU (1.23 g, 3.3 mmol). Acetonitrile (15 mL) was added, followed by DIEA (1.62 mL, 9.3 mmol), and the resulting solution was stirred under argon for 15 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated to a syrup that was redissolved in EtOAc (100 mL). The organic layer was washed with 1 N HCl (30 mL) followed by 10% NaHCO3 (30 mL). The organic layer was dried (anhydrous Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated. Purification of the crude product by flash chromatography using a gradient of EtOAc in hexanes (5-40%) afforded a colorless oil that solidified to a white solid under high vacuum (0.82 g, 94%).
