iodylbenzene

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: A freshly prepared dimethyldioxirane solution (30 mL), as described above (para. [0035]) for the synthesis of simple iodylbenzene analogs, was added drop wise with stirring to an anhydrous dichloromethane (15 mL) solution of 4 (100 mg, 0.28 mmol) cooled in an ice bath. The resultant suspension was stirred at 0° C. for additional period of 2-3 hours and then at room temperature overnight. The yellow solid that was formed was collected by centrifugation and washed three times with dichloromethane. The residue was dried in vacuum to give 2-(4-iodylphenyl)-6-methoxy-1,3-benzothiazole (7) (95.4 mg, 84%) as a beige solid. was added drop wise cooled in an ice bath at room temperature overnight The yellow solid that was formed was collected by centrifugation washed three times with dichloromethane The residue was dried in vacuum
