Abstract
Regioselective synthesis of α‐iodoacetates from alkenes, ammonium acetate, and iodine in acetic acid is reported. The reaction is facile, fast, environmentally, friendly, and cost effective. α‐Iodoacetates are obtained from both acyclic and cyclic alkenes in high yields ranging from 80–95% within 10–20 min.
