“…Acetonitrile was found to be the best medium for these transformations and 50 mol% of molecular iodine was found to be enough for complete transformation of starting the material. This methodology has been intensively used for efficient and selective iodination of alkyl-substituted benzene derivatives [ 34 ], also those sterically hindered [ 35 ], as well for iodofunctinalization of arenes in ionic liquids as the reaction media [ 36 ].…”
