Iodine trifluoroacetates

The addition of iodine trifluoroacetate (produced by reaction of iodine with silver trifluoroacetate) to unsaturated carbohydrates has been investigated.134 Treatment of 5,6-dideoxy-l,2-0-isopropylidene-a-D-xylo-hex-5-enofuranose (89) with silver trifluoroacetate and iodine in acetonitrile gave 3,6-anhydro-5-deoxy-5-iodo-l,2-0-iso-propylidene-a-D-gluco(and /3-L-ido)furanose (91) and 5-deoxy-5-iodo-l,2-0-isopropylidene-6-0-(trifluoroacetyl)-o -D-gluco(and/or /3-L-ido)-furanose (92), with the former preponderating. Component 91 was converted into 3,6-anhydro-5-deoxy-l,2-0-isopropylidene-a-D-xj/io-hexofuranose (94) by hydrogenation over Raney nickel (see also, Section III,3 p. 299), and component 92 was converted into 5-deoxy-l,2-0-isopropylidene-a-D-xy/o-hexofuranose (95) by treat-... 

Olefin addition. Addition of iodine and A -cholestene to a solution of silver trifluoroacetate in methylene chloride generates iodine trifluoroacetate which adds to the olefin to give 3a-iodo-2 -trifluoroacetatoxycholestane in 72% yield. Lithium aluminum hydride effects reduction and deacetylation to cholestane-2/3-ol. D. E. Janssen and C. V. Wilson, Org. Syn., Coll. Vol., 4,547 (1963)... 

Ternay and coworkers examined the conformations of thioxanthene-10-oxide (186) and related compounds. They found that oxygen preferred the pseudoequatorial position, 186e, but that the amount of pseudoaxial conformer, 186a, increased when the oxygen was complexed with iodine monochloride or trifluoroacetic acid171. 

The sodium bisulfite is added to reduce some free iodine formed in this reaction. Due to the presence of trifluoroacetic acid in the reaction mixture, sulfur dioxide evolves upon addition of the bisulfite. If not done in small portions, this operation may cause overflow of the reaction mixture. 

So do anhydrides and many compounds that enolize easily (e.g., malonic ester and aliphatic nitro compounds). The mechanism is usually regarded as proceeding through the enol as in 12-4. If chlorosulfuric acid (CISO2OH) is used as a catalyst, carboxylic acids can be ot-iodinated, as well as chlorinated or brominated. N-Bromosuccinimide in a mixture of sulfuric acid-trifluoroacetic acid can mono-brominate simple carboxylic acids. ... 

Free-radical acyloxylation of aromatic substrates has been accomplished with a number of reagents including copper(II) acetate,benzoyl peroxide-iodine, silver(II) complexes, and cobalt(III) trifluoroacetate. ... 

Vicinal iodo carboxylates may also be prepared from the reaction of olefins either with iodine and potassium iodate in acetic acid/ or with N-iodosuccinimide and a carboxylic acid in chloroform. " A number of new procedures for effecting the hydroxylation or acyloxylation of olefins in a manner similar to the Prevost or Woodward-Prevost reactions include the following iodo acetoxylation with iodine and potassium chlorate in acetic acid followed by acetolysis with potassium acetate reaction with iV-bromoacetamide and silver acetate in acetic acid reaction with thallium(III) acetate in acetic acid and reaction with iodine tris(trifluoroacetate) in pentane. ... 

Iodine tris(trifluoroacetate) Acetic acid, trifluoro-, trianhydride with iodous acid (H3IO3) (8, 9) (14353-86-7)... 

Specifically, it has recently been found 149) that diarylthallium tri-fluoroacetates may be converted into aromatic iodides by refluxing a solution in benzene with an excess of molecular iodine. Yields are excellent (74-94%) and the overall conversion represents, in effect, a procedure for the conversion of aromatic chlorides or bromides into aromatic iodides via intermediate Grignard reagents. The overall stoichiometry for this conversion is represented in Eq. (10), and it would appear that the initial reaction is probably formation of 1 mole of aromatic iodide and 1 mole of arylthallium trifluoroacetate iodide [Eq. (8)] which subsequently spontaneously decomposes to give a second mole of aromatic iodide and thallium(I) trifluoroacetate [Eq. (9)]. Support for this interpretation comes from the... 

The conversion of diarylthallium trifluoroacetates to aromatic iodides by treatment with molecular iodine is thus analogous to the well-known conversion of diarylmercury derivatives with iodine to a mixture of an aromatic iodide and an arylmercury iodide (134), but it is much more effective as a synthetic tool because of the spontaneous disproportionation to product of the intermediate arylthallium trifluoroacetate iodide. The present procedure thus provides a practical synthetic method for the ultimate conversion of aryl Grignard reagents to aromatic iodides. 

Trisubstituted imidazoles have been synthesized from 1,2-diketones or a-hydroxyketones with ammonium acetate in very short reaction times with excellent yields in the presence of l,l,3,3-VAr V ,(V -tetramethylguanidinium trifluoroacetate as an ionic liquid <06SC65>. Iodine acted as an efficient catalyst in the synthesis of 1,2,4,5-tetraarylimidazoles 93 using benzoin 91,... 

A series of benzisothiazolone derivatives 238 has been prepared from methylthiosalicylate 235 O60L4811>. The key cyclization step features the formation of a TV-acylnitrenium ion 237, generated by the hypervalent iodine reagent, phenyliodine(III)bis(trifluoroacetate) (PIFA). This ion cyclizes to benzisothiazol-3-one 238 upon intramolecular trapping of the thiol moiety. 

Iodopyrimidine 7 was prepared by iodination of 2,4-diaminopyrimidine 6, which was derived from commercially available 2-amino-4-chloro-6-methylpyrimidine (5) via an SNAr reaction with ammonia [8]. Similarly, iodination of 6-chloro-2,4-dimethoxypyrimidine (8) with N-iodosuccinimide in trifluoroacetic acid led to dihalopyrimidine 9 [9],... 

The reduction of (2,3)-q - and (2,3)-jS-methylenepenam j6-sulfoxides to the corresponding sulfides using potassium iodide and trifluoroacetic anhydride (TFAA) is found to be much faster than for bicyclic jS-lactam jS-sulfoxides.- In the proposed mechanism, initial attack of the sulfoxide oxygen on TFAA is followed by rate-limiting, nucleophilic displacement of trifluoroacetate by iodide ion nucleophilic attack of iodide on the iodine atom then yields the sulfide and iodine. The rate enhancement is accounted for by the stabilization of the transition state in the rate-limiting step by interaction of the p-like orbital of sulfur and the cyclopropane a orbital. 

The oxidation with CPBA at 0 °C in CH2CI2 does not effect removal of tert-hutyl protecting groups [39]. Classic iodine/water oxidation system is not suitable, because it causes extensive tert-hutyl cleavage [39]. Finally tert-hutyl protective groups are removed by the action of trifluoroacetic acid TEA. This procedure is complementary to the one in Example 12. 

In these latter compounds, the hypervalent iodine may be associated with oxyanions such as perchlorate, trifluoroacetate, and triflate, as verified by the crystal structure of the trifluoroacetate derivative (41). It seems likely that the mode of binding of... 

A mixture of silver nitrite and iodine reacts with alkenes to give jS-nitroalkyl iodides, and therefore, provides a convenient route to a-nitroalkenes. Treatment of alkenes with ammonium nitrate and trifluoroacetic anhydride in the presence of ammonium bromide, followed by... 

Thieno benzazepine 109 was synthesized in moderate yield by oxidative biaryl-coupling using the hypervalent iodine reagent phenyliodine(lll)bis (trifluoroacetate) (FIFA) and BF3 OEt2 as the activating agent in methylene chloride (Equation (16) (2002X8581)). 

While the silver and zinc salts were effective Lewis acids for these cyclizations, Kikugawa and coworkers reported that the alkoxynitrenium ions could be generated directly from hydroxamic esters (4) using hypervalent iodine oxidants such as hydroxy(tosyloxy) iodobenzene (HUB) and phenyliodine(lll)bis(trifluoroacetate) (PIFA) . Presumably, with such reagents the reactions proceed through A-(oxoiodobenzene) intermediates (54), which can themselves be regarded as anomeric hydroxamic esters and sources of alkoxynitrenium ions (55) (Scheme 11). 

Filimonov et al. reported a synthesis of 3,6-diiodocarbazole (387) by iodination of carbazole (1). For the iodination, the required electrophilic iodine was generated by reacting iodine monochloride (ICl) with silver trifluoroacetate (CFsCOOAg) in acetonitrile. Following this procedure, 3,6-diiodocarbazole (387) was obtained in almost quantitative yield (871) (Scheme 5.270). 

Cationic polymerizations can be initiated with protic acids (e.g., sulfuric, perchloric, trifluoroacetic acid), with Lewis acids (see Sect. 3.2.1.1), and with compounds that form suitable cations (e.g., iodine, acetyl perchlorate). Some monomers are also polymerized by high-energy radiation according to a cationic mechanism.
