Easy and Safe Preparations of (Diacetoxyiodo) arenes from Iodoarenes, with Urea-Hydrogen Peroxide Adduct (UHP) as the Oxidant and the Fully Interpreted 1H- and 13C-NMR Spectra of the Products

An easy and safe, though only moderately effective method is presented forpreparing (diacetoxyiodo)arenes, ArI(OAc)2, from iodoarenes, ArI, using thecommercially available and easily handled urea-hydrogen peroxide adduct (UHP) as theoxidant. The reactions take place in anhydrous AcOH/Ac2O/AcONa (a c...

Description
Summary:An easy and safe, though only moderately effective method is presented forpreparing (diacetoxyiodo)arenes, ArI(OAc)2, from iodoarenes, ArI, using thecommercially available and easily handled urea-hydrogen peroxide adduct (UHP) as theoxidant. The reactions take place in anhydrous AcOH/Ac2O/AcONa (a catalyst)mixtures, at 40 oC for 3.5 h to afford the purified ArI(OAc)2 in 37-78% yields. The fullyinterpreted 1H- and 13C-NMR spectra of the ArI(OAc)2 products are reported.
