- Benzene, m-diiodo-
1,3-Diiodobenzene is a chemical compound that is used in homogeneous catalysts. It has been shown to be an excellent catalyst for the synthesis of 1,2-diols from ketones and aldehydes. It also has asymmetric synthesis methods and can be used as a x-ray structure model system. 1,3-Diiodobenzene can be synthesized by the reaction of benzene with iodine in the presence of silver nitrate. The linear mechanism of this reaction is shown below:
The functional theory is used to explain how the reaction proceeds in two steps. In the first step, proton abstraction from C1 produces an unstable intermediate called "A". In the second step, A undergoes anti elimination to form B. The elimination of iodine leaves behind a benzyl radical on C1 and restores aromaticity to benzene.
