omega-Iodoalkyl(methyl)malonate esters have potential utility in the bio-conjugate chemistry of steroids. A representative set of these esters with a variety of protecting groups and alkyl groups has been prepared. The compounds offer a range of elution values on silica, as well as several convenient deprotection options.
