Easy Preparation of [Bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodo]arenes from Iodoarenes, with Sodium Percarbonate as the Oxidant

Easy and effective preparations of the nearly pure [bis(trifluoroacetoxy)-iodo]arenes, ArI(OCOCF)3, from some iodoarenes, ArI, are reported, using an anhydrous sodium percarbonate/(CF3CO)2O/CH2Cl2 system. The colorless, freshly prepared ArI(OCOCF3)2 thus obtained were 98-99% pure (by iodometry).
