Abstract

Aromatic iodo compounds are an important class of compounds in synthetic organic chemistry. They are useful for the preparation of organometallic reagents and some are potential intermediates for the synthesis of pharmaceutical and bioactive materials. They are useful in metal catalyzed coupling reactions which are widely applied in the preparation of complex molecules. ... The iodination of organic molecules using elemental iodine is particularly ...
