An α-ketoacid could be converted into a reactive acylating agent by treatment with hypervalent iodine(III) species, and in so doing, we discovered a novel decarboxylative acylation of alcohols that affords a variety of esters in excellent yields. The esterification has been applied to a sterol bearing a free carboxylic acid and shows unique chemoselectivity. The procedure is racemization-free and operates under mild conditions.

A practical method for the preparation of (diacetoxyiodo)arene ArI(OAc)2 is described. The use of commercially available sodium hypochlorite pentahydrate (NaClO·5H2O) enabled safe, rapid, and inexpensive oxidation of iodoarenes with electron-withdrawing and -donating substituents. The method allows tandem divergent access to synthetically useful organo-λ3-iodanes such as hydroxyl(tosyloxy)iodobenzene, iodosylbenzene, iodonium ylide, etc.
