>Diazotization to bromo-benzodioxole
Rhodium, there is more elegant ways: f.e. Meerwein rxn(MD-diasonium with methacrylamide -> 2-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)propanoic acid amide ~45-50%), and the Hofman degradation of resulting amide to MDA (70%). 2 steps; overall conversion I guess near 30%...

So I guess my next question is: Would
3,4-methylenedioxy aniline be a better starting point than other, more conventional, chemicals?
Thanks!

Far better starting points would be the acetic acid, or the aldehyde. Less steps are then needed. What is the BEST starting point?? This is relative, it depends on what you can get, and what reagants are available to you. Price is also a factor. I have found that the substituted aldehydes are available, and cheap.
