A (2R,4S)-trans-disubstituted pyrrolidine ring system was constructed by employing iodine-mediated oxidative cyclization of (1R)-N-[1-(4-bromophenyl)-3-butenyl]acetamide 3 as a key step. The resulting diastereomeric mixture of (2R)-2-aryl-4-acetoxypyrrolidine 4 was stereoselectively converted to the side-chain of a novel ultrabroad-spectrum carbapenem 1, via (2R,4R)-2-aryl-4-hydroxypyrrolidine 7.

The hypervalent iodine-mediated formation of steroidal 5/5-spiroiminals and 5/5-spiroaminals from steroidal amines is presented. Under the influence of excess PhI(OAc) and iodine in acetonitrile at 0 °C, steroidal amines smoothly underwent cyclization to give a mixture of 5/5-spiroiminals and 5/5-spiroaminals. This reaction represents the first example of a C-H-activation-mediated formation of a spiroiminal.

An iodine-mediated electrochemical four-component reaction was developed to construct aromatic C-N bonds by making use of a simple nitrogen source, such as NH and formamide. By virtue of this reaction, a variety of benzoxazoles bearing different substituents can be selectively modulated by using different bases. This protocol features a broad substrate scope and good scalability, is transition metal-free and chemical oxidant-free, and exhibits controlled product distribution.

Two new protocols leveraging electrochemical and hypervalent iodine-mediated synthesis of α-ketothioamides have been developed by using easily accessible and cost-effective Bunte salts and secondary amines. The methods are efficient, simple, and straightforward, and showcase the formation of C-N bonds across diverse substrates under ambient conditions.
