this new protocol was demonstrated with 1) 28 examples, 2)
successful integration of halogenation as a one-pot reaction,
and 3) 7-step total synthesis of cyclotryptamine alkaloid ()-
protubonines A and B. The most striking advantage of this
protocol over all previous methods using stoichiometric organic
halogenating agents or oxidants is no organic byproduct
generated from the reaction. Additional features of this new
protocol include simple operation (open flask to air and
moisture), facile purification, and broad scope.
