A mild and general cycloaddition of arynes with iodonium ylides protocol has been developed for the synthesis of benzofurans. In the presence of CsF, ortho-silyl aryltriflates were reacted with iodonium ylides smoothly at room temperature in moderate to good yields.

The first Ru(II)-catalyzed C-H activation/[4 + 2] annulation of aryl imidates with heteroaromatic iodonium ylides is reported. Our approach features the utilization of a commercially available ruthenium catalyst, providing a one-step construction of phelligridin analogues from easily available and nonpreactivated starting materials. The developed methodology is successfully employed for the total synthesis of phelligridin A, significantly streamlining previous multistep synthesis.

To date, a general approach for the direct α-acyloxylation of cyclic 1,3-dicarbonyls remains challenging. Herein, we report a Pd-catalyzed α-acyloxylation of cyclic 1,3-dicarbonyl-derived hypervalent iodine compounds with highly abundant carboxylic acids. Our approach utilizes a commercially available Pd(OAc) catalyst, which exhibits mild reaction conditions, scalability, operational simplicity, and robustness against moisture and air.

Hypervalent iodine(III) reagents have become indispensable tools in organic synthesis, but gaps remain in the functionalities they can transfer. In this study, a fundamental understanding of the thermal stability of phosphorus-iodonium ylids is obtained through X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Insights into the structural factors affecting thermal stability and potential decomposition pathways will enable the future design and development of new reagents.

Fluorine-18 is the predominant radionuclide used to label Positron Emission Tomography (PET) tracers. One outstanding challenge in nucleophilic aromatic radiofluorination reactions is the sensitivity of precursors and catalysts for basic reaction conditions, which are necessary for the work-up of [F]fluoride, resulting in limited reproducibility. Triflyl [F]fluoride is a new [F]fluoride source that allows freedom in choice of type and amounts of base and cryptand.

The present work reveals a new metal-catalyzed synthetic reaction involving 1,2,3-benzotriazinones with carbonyl sulfoxonium ylide and iodonium ylide, resulting in divergent products. Within this catalytic system, 3-phenylbenzo[][1,2,3]triazin-4(3)-one derivatives undergo C-H alkylation processes facilitated by a Cp*Rh(III) catalyst when combined with a carbonyl sulfoxonium ylide. On the other hand, when iodonium ylide substrates are used, they undergo an alkenylation reaction facilitated by a Cp*Ir(III) catalyst.
