6-(3,5-Bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1H,4H-2aλ3-ioda-2,3-dioxacyclopenta[hi]indene-1,4-dione (p-BTFP-iodosodilactone, 1a) was synthesized and demonstrated to be an efficient hypervalent iodine(III) reagent for the synthesis of dipeptides from various standard amino acids, including sterically hindered amino acids, in good to high yields within 30 min in the presence of tris(4-methoxyphenyl)phosphine. In addition, the combined system of 1a/(4-MeOC6H4)3P was used to synthesize the pentapeptide leu-enkephalin in protected form. It is worth noting that 1a can be regenerated readily after reaction.
