Tm. Kasumov et al., XENON FLUORIDE TRIFLATE AS A NEW OXIDANT FOR THE GENERATION OF ARYLIODOSO DERIVATIVES AS KEY INTERMEDIATES IN THE SYNTHESIS OF DIARYLIODONIUM SALTS, New journal of chemistry, 21(12), 1997, pp. 1347-1351
The oxidative properties of xenon fluoride triflate 3 (prepared from x
enon difluoride and triflic acid) in reactions with iodoarenes were st
udied. The resultant aryliodoso adducts 2a,b react with aromatic compo
unds resulting in diaryliodonium triflates 4,5 in good yield, The mole
cular structure of product 5a was determined by X-ray analysis.
