Catalytic Cycles Based on Iodine III Species

Catalytic reactions of this type usually involve the reoxidation of iodoarene to aryliodine(III) species in situ using oxidants such as peroxycarboxylic acids, hydrogen peroxide, sodium perborate, or Oxone at room temperature. The choice of oxidant is critically important the oxidant must not react with the substrate, as the substrate should only be oxidized by the hypervalent iodine species. The stoichiometric oxidant has to be carefully selected to achieve the re-oxidation of the iodine compound under homogeneous reaction
