Vita, Maria VictoriaWaser, Jerome2015-09-282015-09-282015-09-28201510.1002/anie.201501666https://infoscience.epfl.ch/handle/20.500.14299/119452WOS:0003541916000021+1=3: by combining the exceptional properties of benziodoxolone reagents and iron catalysts, Sharma and Hartwig have achieved an important breakthrough for the late-stage C-Hazidation of complex molecules. Nevertheless, moderate yields and selectivities were still observed for some substrates, and our understanding of the reaction mechanism remains underdeveloped. Indeed, the potential of combining base-metal catalysts and cyclic hypervalent iodine reagents for the discovery of new reactions has just begun to be investigated, and many more exciting discoveries await us in the future. © 2015 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
