An efficient iodine pentoxide-triggered iodocarbocyclization for the synthesis of iodooxindoles in water
2018
An efficient iodocarbocyclization of alkenes for the synthesis of iodooxindoles has been developed. This reaction proceeds in a chemoselective manner and shows excellent tolerance of various functional groups, including a chemosensitive hydroxymethyl group. Nonmetal inorganic iodine pentoxide was used as both the oxidant and iodine source, making this protocol very practical. On the basis of experimental observations, a plausible electrophilic reaction mechanism was proposed.
