Reaction of (E)-[β-(trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy)-ethenyl](phenyl)iodonium triflates with aryl- and alkynyllithium reagents gave aryl(phenyl)- and alkynyl(phenyl)iodonium triflates in high yields and selectively. These reactions indicate that ligand exchange takes place efficiently at the hypervalent iodine atom and provides another approach to diaryl- and alkynyliodonium salts.
