Hypervalent iodine(III)-LiX combination in fluoroalcohol solvent for aromatic halogenation of electron-rich arenecarboxylic acids
The novel reagent system, PhI(OAc)2-LiX combination in fluoroalcohol solvents, was found to be effective for halodecarboxylation of electron-rich arenecarboxylic acids. The method provided an efficient route to halogenated phenol ether derivatives. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart ? New York.
