title: Synthesis and structure of amino acid-derived benziodazoles: new hypervalent iodine heterocycles.
abstract: New N-functionalized benziodazoles were prepared by the peracetic oxidation of 2-iodobenzamides derived from alanine or valine. X-ray crystal structural analysis of two benziodazole-based phenyliodonium derivatives provides insight into facile interchange between benziodazoles and iminium benziodoxoles under acidic or basic conditions.
