Procedure: 0.263 mL (1.1 eq.) iodomethane are added dropwise at room temperature to a stirred suspension of 1.1 g (4 mmol) (4-bromo-phenyl)-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester and 2 g (1.6 eq.) cesium carbonate in 15 mL DMF. After stirring for an additional 18 hours, the reaction mixture is extracted with water/ethyl acetate and the combined organic phases are washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated to yield the desired product as a colorless oil, which is used without further purification. the reaction mixture is extracted with water/ethyl acetate the combined organic phases are washed with brine dried over magnesium sulfate evaporated
