ChemInform Abstract: Organo‐Iodine(III)‐Catalyzed Oxidative Phenol—Arene and Phenol—Phenol Cross‐Coupling Reaction.

Abstract

A hypervalent iodine(III)‐catalyzed intermolecular oxidative cross‐coupling reaction of electron‐rich aromatic compounds is achieved by using a catalytic amount of an iodoarene and an inorganic oxidant.
