AbstractBecause molecular iodine and hydrosilanes are stable to both air and moisture, reactions using these reagents are easy to operate and require mild reaction conditions. Molecular iodine and a hydrosilane were used to reduce N-sulfonyl aldimines to the corresponding N-alkylsulfonamides. This transformation is a practical method for the synthesis of N-alkylsulfonamides.

The title compounds were synthesized from 5,5-dimethyl­cyclohexane-1,3-dione, benzaldehyde, and malononitrile promoted by molecular iodine in basic medium via 2-amino-7,7-dimethyl-5-oxo-4-phenyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-chromene-3-carbonitrile, by a novel protocol. The protocol involves a novel rearrangement in which the 4H-chromene fragment dissociates to a cyclopropane moiety and rearranges to the five-membered compound 6,6-dimethyl-4-oxo-2-phenyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzofuran-3,3(2H)-dicarbonitrile. Simple reaction conditions, excellent yields, and high compatibility are the advantages of this protocol.

A one-pot three-component synthesis of dihydropyrimidinones via a molecular iodine-catalyzed tandem reaction of simple readily available mono-substituted urea, alkylaldehyde, and arylaldehyde has been developed. The reaction proceeds with high chemo- and regioselectivity to give highly diverse dihydropyrimidinones in reasonable yields under mild reaction conditions. Moreover, the first catalytic enantioselective version of this reaction was also realized by using chiral spirocyclic SPINOL-phosphoric acids.

Abstract C–C bond formation is one of the most fundamental approaches toward molecular diversity in organic synthesis. In pursuit of environmentally friendlier chemical approaches to organic chemistry, we present a new metal-free method for direct dehydrative cross-coupling of alcohols and alkenes using molecular iodine as a Lewis acid catalyst under solvent-free reaction conditions. The reaction is atom-economical, tolerant to air and allows simple synthetic procedure, furnishing Csp3–Csp2 coupling products with yields up to 97%. The method has proved efficient for coupling of secondary benzyl alcohols with phenyl-substituted alkenes.

A highly efficient method for the C–N bond formation via 2 mol% of molecular iodine-catalysed amidation reaction of benzylic and allylic alcohols with carboxamides or sulfonamides in MeCN is described, giving the corresponding substituted amides and allylic amides in moderate to excellent yields. The significan features of the procedure include mild and metal-free reaction conditions, operational simplicity, inexpensive reagents, short reaction time, and good yields.

The carbonyl-olefin metathesis reaction is a synthetically valuable transformation that could facilitate rapid functional group interconversion and construction of new organic structures. Herein we demonstrate that elemental iodine, a very simple and mild catalyst, can efficiently promote this chemical transformation under mild reaction conditions with excellent outcomes. Our mechanistic studies revealed intriguing aspects of iodine activation mode that could change the previously established perception of catalyst and substrate design for the carbonyl-olefin metathesis reaction.

Chlorodiphenylphosphine, imidazole, and molecular iodine in refluxing dichloromethane are used for the efficient preparation of amides under mild reaction conditions. This reagent system also shows excellent selectivity for mono-N-alkylation of amines with alcohols. In this system, the resulting phosphorus byproduct (diphenylphosphinic acid) is easily removed by extraction using an aqueous basic solution in the workup processes, which avoids the tedious and time-consuming chromatographic methods.

A facile and efficient synthetic protocol for the synthesis of α-amino amidines has been developed using a molecular iodine-catalyzed three-component coupling reaction of isocyanides, amines, and aldehydes. The presented strategy offers the advantages of mild reaction conditions, low environmental impact, clean and simple methodology, high atom economy, wide substrate scope and high yields.

Biologically useful 7-azaindoles were synthesized by electrophilic cyclization of 3-alkynyl-N,N-dimethylpyridine-2-amines with molecular iodine. By this simple atom-economical approach under ambient reaction conditions, a library of interesting 3-iodo-7-azaindoles were synthesized in high yields. To synthesize the corresponding 3-bromo- and 3-chloro-7-azaindoles, an environmentally benign copper-mediated cyclization was employed, with inexpensive, nontoxic, and noncorrosive sodium chloride and sodium bromide as the sources of chlorine and bromine, respectively.

A unique copper-catalyzed binucleophilic switching of 2-aminopyridine has been developed for the regioselective synthesis of 2- and 3-iodoimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines using alkenes/alkynes as coupling partners in the presence of molecular iodine under aerobic reaction conditions.
