In recent years, London dispersion interactions, which are the attractive component of the van der Waals potential, have been found to play an important role in controlling the regio- and/or stereoselectivity of various reactions. Particularly, the dispersion interactions between substrates and catalysts (or ligands) are dominant in various selective catalyzes. In contrast, repulsive steric interactions, rather than the attractive dispersion interactions, between bulky substituents are predominant in most of the noncatalytic reactions. Herein, we demonstrate the first example of London dispersion-controlled noncatalytic (2 + 2) cyclodimerization of substituted benzynes to selectively afford proximal biphenylenes in high yields and regioselectivities, depending on the extent of dispersion interactions in the substituents. This method can be applied for the synthesis of novel helical biphenylenes, which would be fascinating for chemists as these compounds are potential skeletons for ligands, catalysts, and medicines.

A convenient method for preparing diverse o-iodoaryl triflates by the desilyliodination of o-silylaryl triflates has been developed. The treatment of o-silylaryl triflates with 1,3-diiodo- 5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DIH) in the presence of aluminum trichloride efficiently afforded the corresponding o-iodoaryl triflates, including those with multiple 1-iodo-2-(triflyloxy)arene moieties. Various multisubstituted o-iodoaryl triflates were easily prepared by the iridium-catalyzed CH borylation of readily available, simple o-silylaryl triflates, followed by deborylative transformations and subsequent desilyliodinaton.

By using vicinal trifluoromethanesulfonate-substituted diaryliodonium salts, a novel approach was developed for the synthesis of ortho-iodo diaryl ethers by intramolecular aryl migration. The reaction conditions are mild with a broad substrate scope. Mechanistic insight suggests a sulfonyl-directed nucleophilic aromatic substitution pathway. Additionally, the product ortho-iodo diaryl ethers serve as versatile synthons as demonstrated with several coupling reactions. Furthermore, a useful thyroxine analogue of the 3-iodo-l-thyronine (3-T1) derivative was synthesized by this aryl migration procedure.
