Abstract

A convenient and mild one-pot method for the synthesis of iodoarenes in high yields by the sequential diazotization-iodination of aromatic amines with a reusable polymeric diazotization agent in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid at room temperature in water was developed. The method is general and is the greenest alternative of the known diazotization-iodination methods. The method is also effective for the preparation of 1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazole and benzo[d][1,2,3]thiadiazole.

Key words

diazotization - halogenation - iodination - heterocycles - amines

For several examples, the resulting diazonium tosylates can be partially isolated from the aqueous solution by extraction with ethyl acetate, followed by pouring the organic solution in diethyl ether. Properties and spectral data of these salts were identical to those previously obtained by diazotization in acetic acid.8
