Vinyliodine(III) compounds are versatile reagents that can be used as efficient synthons for: i) vinylic nucleophilic substitution, ii) a-elimination reaction, iii) Michael addition, and iv) ligand coupling. Numerous preparation methods and reactivity of vinyl iodine(III) compounds have been reported. However, the preparation and reactivity of pseudocyclic vinyliodine(III) compounds have not been previously investigated. Herein, we report a synthesis and structural investigation of pseudocyclic vinyliodine(III) compounds, which can be prepared from 2-iodosylbenzoic acid and alkyne in the presence of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid. Prepared pseudocyclic vinyliodine(III) compounds can be converted into the cyclic vinyliodine(III) compounds.
