Procedure: To a solution of 2,5-dimethylaniline (20 g, 165 mmol) in a 1:1 mixture of dichloromethane and methanol (400 mL) was added sodium bicarbonate (20.8 g, 250 mmol) and tetramethylammonium dichloroiodate(I) (44.7 g, 165 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour and then water was added (500 mL). The organic layer was removed and washed with 5% aqueous sodium thiosulfate (500 mL) and brine (500 mL). The organic layer was then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under vacuum to provide 4-iodo-2,5-dimethylphenylamine (39.6 g, 98% yield). The product was used without further purification. The organic layer was removed washed with 5% aqueous sodium thiosulfate (500 mL) and brine (500 mL) The organic layer was then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate filtered concentrated under vacuum
