An iridium-catalyzed selective ortho-monoiodination of benzoic acids with two equivalent C?H bonds is presented. A wide range of electron-rich and electron-poor substrates undergo the reaction under mild conditions, with >20:1 mono/di selectivity. Importantly, the C?H iodination occurs selectively ortho to the carboxylic acid moiety in substrates bearing competing coordinating directing groups. The reaction is performed at room temperature and no inert atmosphere or exclusion of moisture is required. Mechanistic investigations revealed a substrate-dependent reversible C?H activation/protodemetalation step, a substrate-dependent turnover-limiting step, and the crucial role of the AgI additive in the deactivation of the iodination product towards further reaction.

Two one-pot procedures for the construction of carbon-bridged diaryliodonium triflates and tetrafluoroborates are described. Strong Br?nsted acids enable the effective Friedel-Crafts alkylation with diversely substituted o-iodobenzyl alcohol derivatives, providing diphenylmethane scaffolds, which are subsequently oxidized and cyclized to the corresponding dibenzo[b,e]iodininium salts. Based on NMR investigations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we could verify the so-far-undescribed existence of two stable isomers in cyclic iodonium salts substituted with aliphatic side chains in the carbon bridge.
