Abstract

Abstract Easy laboratory procedures for oxidative iodination of aromatic substrates are presented. One procedure includes the iodination using molecular iodine, concentrated sulfuric acid, and potassium peroxodisulfate, and another uses a reagent system containing molecular iodine, potassium peroxodisulfate, and trifluoroacetic acid. These procedures are especially effective for benzene and less deactivated aromatic substrates, such as ...
