Synthesis of 1,2-iodoamines
Recent Literature
An efficient and mild thiophenol-promoted ring-opening of aziridines or epoxides
with iodine afforded β-iodo amines or β-iodo alcohols in very good yields.

Aziridines are opened regioselectively with hydrogen and lithium halides to
yield β-haloamines in the presence of β-cyclodextrin using water as the solvent.

The combination of sodium periodate, potassium iodide, and sodium azide is an
efficient, simple, and inexpensive reagent system for azidoiodination of
alkenes. The regiospecific 1,2-azidoiodination proceeds in an anti-Markovnikov
fashion to produce β-iodoazides in excellent yields.
