A comparative kinetic study of nucleophilic substitution under PTC conditions in liquid-liquid and solid-liquid systems

The phenomenon of initial exponential burst (IB) on kinetic curves in the reaction with solid salts was observed in the study on the S(N)2 substitution reaction of 2-octylmesylate with potassium halides under phase- transfer catalysis (PTC) conditions in liquid-liquid (l/l) and solid-liquid (s/l) systems. The mechanistic scheme describing the IB phenomenon in application to s/l PTC has been developed from the analysis of IB kinetic model known in enzyme kinetics.

Ready access to organoiodides: Practical hydroiodination and double-iodination of carbon-carbon unsaturated bonds with I2

By using I2 or I2/H3PO3 system, various alkenes and alkynes were converted to the corresponding alkyl and alkenyl iodides in good yields. In the presence of I2, alkynes could be di-iodinated using H2O as the solvent in air at room temperature. This method also features the simple work-up procedure since the pure product could be obtained by extraction. Additionally, for the first time, combining with the non-toxic and cheap phosphonic acid H3PO3, alkenes and alkynes were also hydroiodinated successfully, which provides a simple and practical approach for synthesis of organoiodides.

Rhodium-Catalyzed Generation of Anhydrous Hydrogen Iodide: An Effective Method for the Preparation of Iodoalkanes

The preparation of anhydrous hydrogen iodide directly from molecular hydrogen and iodine using a rhodium catalyst is reported for the first time. The anhydrous hydrogen iodide generated was proven to be highly active in the transformations of alkenes, phenyl aldehydes, alcohols, and cyclic ethers to the corresponding iodoalkanes. Therefore, the present methodology not only has provided convenient access to anhydrous hydrogen iodide but also offers a practical preparation method for various iodoalkanes in excellent atom economy.
