An unprecedented iodine(III)-mediated oxidative transposition of vinyl halides has been accomplished. The products obtained, α-halo ketones, are useful and polyvalent synthetic precursors. There are only a handful of reported examples of the direct conversion of vinyl halides to their corresponding α-halo carbonyl compounds. Insights into the mechanism and demonstration that this synthetic transformation can be done under enantioselective conditions are reported.
