Diphenyliodonium chloride is used as a reagent for electrophilic phenylation . It is used as a reactant for copper-catalyzed cross coupling reactions of purinesband arylation of anilines. It is involved in the preparation of acetylenic arylselenide and (arylmethylene)oxindoles. Further, it is employed in the preparation of aryl alkynes through Sonogashira coupling reactions.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
