Ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) has been found to be a remarkable oxidizing agent for the oxidative conversion of iodoarenes to (dichloroiodo)arenes in acetic acid using aqueous HCl. The reaction of CAN with HCl generates in situ molecular chlorine, which is responsible for the oxidation. This method avoids the use of hazardous, toxic, and corrosive gaseous chlorine.
