Consistent with an ortho-alkoxy group leading to low yields from reaction with copper phenoxides, this reaction produced the biaryl ether product in 68% yield and phenyl n-propyl ether from hydrodeiodination in 31 % yield. Reaction with 5 equivalents of the unhindered p-tert-butyl iodobenzene in DMSO at 110°C for 2 hours yielded the ether product in 80 % yield and less than 2 % yield of ferf-butyl benzene derived from hydrodeiodination.
