Abstract

We report the electrochemical reduction potentials of a library of 50 iodine(III) reagents, including cyclic alkynyl-, vinyl-, aryl-, cyano-, and trifluoromethyl- and azidobenziodoxol(on)es and several linear iodonium salts, which are measured by cyclic voltammetry in acetonitrile and tetrahydrofuran as solvents.

Keywords

Electrochemical potentials - Iodine(III) - Ethynylbenziodoxol(on)e - Vinylbenziodoxol(on)e - Cyanobenziodoxol(on)e - Azidobenziodoxol(on)e - Togni reagent
