Application In Synthesis of 1-Bromo-4-iodobenzene The article mentions the following:
A ruthenium-catalyzed ortho C-H arylation process is described using visible light. Using the readily available catalyst [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2, visible light irradiation was found to enable arylation of 2-aryl-pyridines I (R1 = 4-methoxyphenyl, naphthalen-2-yl, thiophen-2-yl, etc.; R2 = H, 2-Me, 4-Me, 5-Me) at room temperature for a range of aryl halides R3X (R3 = 2-methoxyphenyl, 4-phenylphenyl, thiophen-2-yl, etc.; X = I, Br). In the experimental materials used by the author, we found 1-Bromo-4-iodobenzene(cas: 589-87-7Application In Synthesis of 1-Bromo-4-iodobenzene)
1-Bromo-4-iodobenzene(cas: 589-87-7) has been employed as reagent for in situ desilylation and coupling of silylated alkynes, as starting reagent in the total syntheses of ent-conduramine A and ent-7-deoxypancratistatin (alkaloids), as substrate in copper-free Sonogashira coupling in aqueous acetone in synthesis of β,β,dibromostyrenesApplication In Synthesis of 1-Bromo-4-iodobenzene
