Cyclic Homo- and Heterohalogen Di-λ³-diarylhalonium Structures.

ABSTRACT: In the context of the ever-growing interest in the cyclic diaryliodonium salts, this work presents synthetic design principles for a new family of structures with two hypervalent halogens in the ring. The smallest bis-phenylene derivative, [(C₆H₄)₂I₂]²⁺, was prepared through oxidative dimerization of a precursor bearing the ortho-disposed iodine and trifluoroborate groups. We also report, for the first time, the formation of cycles containing two different halogen atoms. These present two phenylenes linked by hetero-(I/Br) or -(I/Cl) halogen pairs. This approach was also extended to the cyclic bis-naphthylene derivative [(C₁₀H₆)₂I₂]²⁺. The structures of these bis-halogen(III
