Organo halides and their derivatives have received much attention in both the design and
development of new synthetic reagents, drugs, and functional materials. In this review, we …

A novel and regioselective approach to carbonyl-containing alkyl chlorides via silver-
catalyzed ring-opening chlorination of cycloalkanols is reported. Concurrent C (sp3)–C (sp3) …

Hypervalent iodine (III) compounds of the general structure ArIL2 are widely used as
oxidizing agents for a variety of applications across both organic and inorganic chemistry …

Isatin derivatives potentially act on various biological targets. In this article, a series of novel
isatin-hydrazones were synthesized in excellent yields. Their cytotoxicity was tested against …

Mild, metal-free, highly regioselective hypervalent-iodine mediated C-2 acetoxylation and C-
3 oxidations of N-substituted indoles with (diacetoxyiodo) benzene [PhI (OAc) 2] have been …

It has been previously proposed that pyridines can activate PhICl2 by displacing a chloride
and forming the [PhI (Pyr)(Cl)]+ cation as a reactive intermediate. Here we show that …

Sulfuryl chlorofluoride was first employed as a versatile reagent for controllable chlorination
and chlorooxidation of simple unprotected indoles. Three types of products including 3 …

A high yield synthesis of fluorescent benzo, thieno, and furo [c]-fused methyl 7-aryl-6 H-
pyrrolo [3, 4-c] pyridazine-5-carboxylates, including unprecedented heterocyclic skeletons …

α-Diazo-β-dicarbonyl compounds were chlorinated using (dichloro) iodobenzene and an
activating catalyst. A broad range of reaction rates was observed, which paralleled the …

We report a denitrogenative dihalogenation reaction of phenyldiazomethanes in which the
hypervalent iodine reagents PhICl2 and TolIF2 act as surrogates for elemental chlorine and …
