Cyclization of 2′-hydroxychalcones to flavones using ammonium iodide as an iodine source: An eco-friendly approach

Ammonium iodide in open air decomposes to ammonia and iodine. The in situ generated iodine has been used for cyclization of 2′-hydroxychalcones to corresponding flavones under solvent free conditions with good to excellent yields. This method would serve as an attractive alternative to the existi...
