Abstract
4-(Difluoroiodo)toluene-induced domino lambda(3)-iodanation-1,4-halogen shift-ring enlargement-fluorination reaction of 5-halopentynes with a four-, five-, or six-membered carbocycle afforded the ring-expanded (E)-delta-fluoro-beta-halovinyl-lambda3-iodanes stereoselectively in high yields, probably via the intermediacy of five-membered halonium ions. Use of internal alkynes makes it possible to synthesize tetrasubstituted beta-halovinyl-lambda(3)-iodanes with defined stereochemistry.
