Bis(trifluoromethylated)benziodoxoles (Bx) are broadly used cyclic hypervalent iodine reagents due to their stability and unique chemical properties. However, current methods to access them require several steps and long reaction times, making their synthesis tedious. Herein, a direct one-pot synthesis of bis(trifluoromethylated) Bx reagents from iodine(I) precursors is reported, enabling the synthesis of functionalized reagents.
Alkynes are found in a multitude of natural or synthetic bioactive compounds. In addition to the capacity of these chemical motifs to impact the physicochemical properties of a molecule of interest, the well-established reactivity of alkynes makes them ...
