Umpolung of halide reactivity: efficient (diacetoxyiodo)benzene-mediated electrophilic alpha-halogenation of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds.
An efficient high-yielding (diacetoxyiodo)benzene-mediated alpha-halogenation of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds utilising titanium tetrahalides as the halide source has been developed.
