A rapid and effective diiodomethylation of carbonyl compounds using SmI2 and iodoform is described. Transformations of the obtained diiodoalcohols 2 into α-iodoaldehydes 5 and α-hydroxyacids 6 is also reported.

I(1+)(Collidine)2BF4(1-)/DMSO has been found to be a convenient reagent for the direct conversion of alkenes to α-iodocarbonyl compounds.Using conformationally biased alkenes, the reactions proceed stetreospecifically giving axial iodoketones.Application of the reagent in reactions with unsaturated carbohydrates provides a unique method for the conversion of certain glycals to their corresponding α-iodo-α,β-unsaturated lactones.
