Abstract

Iodination of aromatic compounds, however, is sometimes problematic because diiodination takes places together with monoiodination, especially in the case of highly reactive aromatic compounds. Selectivity for such competitive consecutive reactions is intrinsically determined by kinetics. However, if the reaction is faster than mixing, simple kinetics based on the homogeneity of the solution does not work. Rys proposed the concept of “disguised chemical ...
