Recebido em 6/7/00; aceito em 15/1/01 COIODINATION OF ALKENES WITH OXYGENATED NUCLEOPHILES: INTRAMOLECULAR REACTIONS. A review on the electrophilic addition of iodine to alkenes in the presence of oxygen containing nucleophiles (cohalogenation reaction) is presented. The intermolecular reactions are discussed with emphasis in methods of reaction and synthetic applications of the resulting vicinal iodofunctionalized products (iodohydrins, β-iodoethers and β-iodocarboxylates).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
