The influence of a 2-pyridinyl substituent on the catalytic performance of aryl iodides as catalyst in iodine(III) chemistry was explored. An efficient Lewis base adduct between the pyridine nitrogen and the electrophilic iodine(III) center was identified and confirmed by X-ray analysis. This arrangement was shown to generate a kinetically competent superior catalyst structure for the catalytic dioxygenation of alkenes. It introduces the concept of Lewis base adduct formation as a kinetic factor in iodine(I/III) catalysis. (Figure presented.).

A novel method for the organocatalytic syn diacetoxylation of alkenes has been developed using aryl iodides as efficient catalysts. A broad range of substrates, including electron-rich as well as electron-deficient alkenes, are smoothly transformed by the new procedure, furnishing the desired products in good to excellent yields with high diastereoselectivity (up to >19:1 dr).

Evidence for the protiocatalytic nature of the diacetoxylation of alkenes using PhI(OAc)2 as oxidant is presented. Systematic studies into the catalytic activity in the presence of proton-trapping and metal-complexing agents indicate that protons act as catalysts in the reaction. Using triflic acid as catalyst, the selectivity and reaction rate of the conversion is similar or superior to most efficient metal-based catalysts. Metal cations, such as Pd(II) and Cu(II), may interact with the oxidant in the initiation phase of the catalytic transformation; however, 1 equiv of strong acid is produced in the first cycle which then functions as the active catalyst. Based on a kinetic study as well as in situ mass spectrometry, a mechanistic cycle for the proton-catalyzed reaction, which is consistent with all experimental data presented in this work, is proposed.
