Iodination reagent

The iodoform test. Dissolve 0 -1 g. or 5 drops of the compound in 2 ml. of water if it is insoluble in water, add sufficient dioxan to produce a homogeneous solution. Add 2 ml. of 5 per cent, sodium hydroxide solution and then introduce a potassium iodide - iodine reagent dropwise with shaking until a definite dark colour of iodine persists. Allow to... 

Tlie potassium iodide iodine reagent Ls prepared by dissolving 20 g. of potassium iodide and 10 g. of iodine in 100 ml. of water. 

Various compounds of the type RAt, RAtCl2, R2AtCl and RAt02 (R = phenyl or p-tolyl) have been synthesized using astatine-labelled iodine reagents, e.g. ...

Recently, the ring enlargement of 4-hydroxy-2-cyclobutenones 5 was promoted by PhI(OAc)2, a popular and accessible hypervalent iodine reagent (99JOC8995). Thus, when 5a-c (R = Me, Bu, Ph) were treated with a slight excess of PhlfOAcja in dichloromethane at room temperature, the 5-acetoxy-3,4-diethoxyfuranones 13... 

Under certain conditions, amides can add directly to alkenes to form N-alkylated amides. 3-Pentenamide was cyclized to 5-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone by treatment with trifluorosulfonic acid. Acylbydrazine derivatives also cyclized in the presence of hypervalent iodine reagents to give lactams. When a carbamate was treated with Bu3SnH, and AIBN, addition to an alkene led to a bicyclic lactam. 

Iodine is enriched to a greater extent in chromatogram zones coated with lipophilic substances than it is in a hydrophilic environment. Hence, iodine is only physically dissolved or adsorbed. Occasionally a chemical reaction also takes place, such as, for example, with estrone [19] (cf. Iodine Reagents ). In general it may be said that the longer the iodine effect lasts the more oxidations, additions or electrophilic substitutions are to be expected. 

Ridomil, with which the treatment with starch solution was not carried out, is said to yield brown chromatogram zones on a pale yellow background [14]. Hence, it may be assumed that this detection is based not on the iodine azide reaction but on the physical adsorption and enrichment of iodine in the lipophilic chromatogram zones (cf. Iodine Reagents ). 

Electrophilic iodine reagents are extensively employed in iodocyclization (see Section 4.2.1). Several salts of pyridine complexes with 1+ such as bis-(pyridinium)iodonium tetrafluoroborate and b/.s-(collidine)iodonium hexafluorophos-...
