Abstract

The present methodology deals with the conversion of alcohols into iodines, using different allyl and benzyl alcohols as substrates. To establish the general effectiveness of our newly developed method, some selected iodination reaction was carried out. This reagent appears to be the most reactive and versatile. The reactions of allyl and benzyl alcohols with a molar equivalent of cesium iodide in the presence of BF 3 ·Et 2 O in acetonitrile under mild conditions cleanly gives ...
