(NH4)2S2O8-Mediated Diiodination of Alkynes with Iodide in Water: Stereospecific Synthesis of (E)-Diiodoalkenes
摘要:
A new approach to the stereospecific diiodination of alkynes under mild conditions has been developed. This protocol employs ammonium persulfate as an oxidant and iodide as an iodine source, and provides a highly efficient and general method for the preparation of a broad range of (E)-diiodoalkenes in water.
