title: Rearrangement of phenylethenes on reaction with iodine-xenon difluoride
abstract: Phenyl-substituted ethenes react with iodine and xenon difluoride to provide difluorinated products. Iodofluoro intermediates react with xenon difluoride to produce transient iodine difluoride species that lose IF and F(-) and produce carbocations.
