General description
Bis(pyridine)iodonium Tetrafluoroborate (Barluenga′s reagent) is a mild iodinating and oxidizing reagent capable of selectively reacting with a wide range of unsaturated substrates and tolerates a variety of functional groups.
Application
Bis(pyridine)iodonium Tetrafluoroborate reacts with acetonides derived from simple terpenes to accomplish selective iodofunctionalization with excellent regio- and diastereofacial control. It has been used as a reactant involved in:
- Synthesis of substituted naphthalenes and oxygen containing heterocycles from 2-alkynyl-substituted benzaldehydes.
- Synthesis of tetracyclic tetrahydrofurans
