Among halogenated aromatics,i odoarenes are unique in their ability to produce the bench-stable halogen(III) form. Earlier,s uch iodine(III) centers were shown to enable CÀHf unctionalization ortho to iodine via halogen-centered rearrangement. The broader implications of this phenomenon are explored by testing the extent of an unusual iodane-directed para C À Hbenzylation, as well as by developing an efficient C À Hc oupling with sulfonyl-substituted allylic silanes.T hrough the combination of the one-shot nature of the coupling event and the iodine retention, multisubstituted arenes can be prepared by sequentially engaging up to three aromatic CÀH sites.T his type of iodine-based iterative synthesis will serve as atool for the formation of value-added aromatic cores.
