Reactivity between ethynylbenziodoxol(on)es and phenols will be discussed by this presentation. A wide range of (Z)-2-iodovinyl phenyl ethers were constructed through irradiating a solution containing a phenyl/alkyl-EBX, a phenol, and the base Cs2CO3 with a commercially available blue LED at room temperature. Using the (Z)-2-iodovinyl phenyl ethers as precursors, a series of transition-metal-catalyzed chemistries were performed to access unique trisubstituted alkene derivatives with significant control of stereo- and regiochemistry.
