Hypervalent iodine compounds as environmentally friendly and relatively inexpensive reagents have properties similar to transition metals. They are employed as alternatives to transition metal catalysts in organic synthesis as mild, nontoxic, selective and recyclable catalytic reagents. Formation of C–N, C–O, C–S, C–F and C–C bonds can be seamlessly accomplished by hypervalent iodine catalysed oxidative functionalisations. The aim of this review is to highlight recent developments in the utilisation of iodine(III) and iodine(V) catalysts in the synthesis of a wide range of organic compounds including chiral catalysts for stereoselective synthesis. Polymer-, magnetic nanoparticle- and metal organic framework-supported hypervalent iodine catalysts are also described.

高价碘催化剂的有机催化研究进展

作为环境友好且相对便宜的试剂的高价碘化合物具有类似于过渡金属的性质。它们被用作有机合成中过渡金属催化剂的替代品，作为温和、无毒、选择性和可回收的催化试剂。C-N、C-O、C-S、C-F 和 C-C 键的形成可以通过高价碘催化的氧化功能化无缝完成。本综述的目的是突出碘 ( III ) 和碘 ( V ) 催化剂在合成各种有机化合物中的最新进展，包括用于立体选择性合成的手性催化剂。还描述了聚合物、磁性纳米颗粒和金属有机骨架负载的高价碘催化剂。
