“…There have been six regional issues, comprising: Mexico (2003), Ukraine (2005), Argentina (2011), South Africa (two issues in 2020) 13 and Australia (2022). 14 The three thematic issues to date have all been on the same topic, namely hypervalent iodine chemistry (2020, 2021 and 2022), [15][16] but thematic issues on other subjects are planned.…”

Arkivoc is an open access journal for organic chemistry, which since its foundation by Alan Katritzky in 2000, has been free to readers and authors. The journal has a humanitarian mission and publishes many papers written by authors in developing countries. The majority of its workforce are unpaid volunteers working part-time as scientific editors and in other roles. In 2020 it achieved the DOAJ's Seal award for best practice in open access publication.Published on line 03-01-2023 © AUTHOR(S) Free to readers and authorsArkivoc is an open access journal for organic chemistry, which is free to both readers and authors. When Alan and Linde Katritzky founded the journal in 2000 with a charitable donation, their aim was that the journal should particularly help authors and readers outside the US and Western Europe.Whilst attending conferences in India as a plenary speaker in the 1990s, Alan Katritzky heard first-hand about the dire problems, which Indian organic chemists had with access to journals and getting their papers published. He was also aware that these same problems were being felt in many other countries. Over several years, academic libraries had been cancelling journals because of financial problems and publishers had been responding by raising prices and the end result was negative for everybody. Organic chemistry journals were amalgamated and sometimes they ceased publication. Consequently, readers were losing access to new research. Moreover, whilst the situation was difficult in the US and Western Europe, it was much worse in developing countries. Alan Katritzky founded Arkivoc for humanitarian reasons. His aim was that the journal would enable organic chemists in developing countries to more easily publish their results and that all readers would have access to their papers.Open access journals adhere to the principle that publicly funded research should be available to everybody, and that scientific research results should be widely accessible. Arkivoc is categorized as a platinum open access journal, because it is free to both readers and authors. This distinguishes it from gold open access journals, which are free to readers but oblige authors to pay an article processing charge. The first gold open access journal for organic chemistry was Molecules, which was first published in 1996. When Arkivoc started publication in 2000, it was the first platinum open access journal for organic chemistry.Brainard 2 has identified a gradually increasing trend towards open access publication over the last three decades. Indeed, he estimated that 45% of chemical literature was open access in 2019, including both green open access documents in repositories and papers in hybrid journals. With hindsight, one can see that Alan Katritzky was a visionary when he started Arkivoc as a platinum open access journal in 2000. Peer reviewPapers published in Arkivoc go through a rigorous, two stage, peer review system. Newly received manuscripts are considered by a Primary Review Committee and those that pass this step are th...

“…Since then, the demand for iodine organic compounds has skyrocketed. In organic synthesis, hypervalent iodine reagents are extensively used as oxidants and electrophilic reagents [1–16] . In general, three typical reactivity patterns for hypervalent iodine reagents have been observed: (i) ligand exchange, (ii) reductive elimination, and (iii) ligand coupling.…”

Applications of Phenyliodine(III)diacetate in C−H Functionalization and Hetero‐Hetero Bond Formations: A Septennial Update

et al. 2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

One of the most widely utilized hypervalent iodines used as an oxidizing agent in organic chemistry is (diacetoxyiodo)benzene (PhI(OAc)2), also known as (DAIB), phenyliodine(III) diacetate (PIDA). In this review, authors have comprehensively and systematically presented the various applications of PIDA in organic synthesis involving C−C, C‐hetero, hetero‐hetero and multiple bond forms from the summer of 2015 to the present. The role of PIDA was also emphasized for the success of particular organic transformation. Recent literature has produced a substantial number of publications (∼100), and this septennial review examines all of the most recent breakthroughs in the field of study.

“…The need for iodine organic compounds has risen since then. Hypervalent iodine reagents are widely utilized as oxidants and electrophilic reagents in organic synthesis [1–16]. Hypervalent iodine reagents exhibit radical‐type reactions, homolytic reactions, and single‐electron transfer (SET) reactions under the appropriate conditions.…”

Diacetoxyiodobenzene (PhI(OAc)2), commonly referred to as DAIB or phenyliodine(III) diacetate (PIDA), is one of the most frequently used hypervalent iodines employed as an oxidizing agent in organic chemistry. In this review, PIDA is highlighted exclusively in relation to its applications in organic synthesis involving heterocyclic ring formations and is critically and in‐depth examined from the summer of 2015 to the present with a specific focus on the mechanistic pathway.
