Abstract

A highly efficient method for the conversion of primary tosylates into the corresponding iodides is outlined. The method involves heating a neat mixture of the tosylate and solid sodium iodide in a microwave cavity. Reaction times are short, usually about 60 minutes, delivering high yields. This procedure is especially useful for the in situ generation of volatile primary iodides, and for most of the primary iodides, the crude product is sufficiently pure.
