Abstract

AbstractIn the last three years, great strides were achieved in the field of organic chemistry of polyvalent iodine compounds. This paper includes the published works on this field from 2002–2005 (Zhdankin, V. V.; Stang, P. J Chem Rev 2002, 102, 2523–2584; Stang, P. J. J Org Chem 2003, 68, 2997–3008; Wirth, T.; Hirt, U. H. Synthesis 1999, 1271–1287; Morales‐Rojas, H.; Moss, R. A. Chem Rev 2002, 102, 2497–2521). It focuses on eight areas: (1) hypervalent iodine reagents as mild oxidants, (2) the addition of hypervalent iodine compounds to alkenes, (3) fluorination of organic compounds by hypervalent iodine compounds, (4) some new reactions of nucleophilic substitution of hypervalent iodine moiety, (5) iodine(III) compounds as a source of nitrene and carbene moiety, (6) novel and new iodine(III) compounds and methods of their preparation, (7) polyvalent iodine compounds in synthesis of natural compounds, and (8) miscellaneous. The published works focus on some hypervalent iodine reagents that have received a widespread practical application in organic chemistry. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
