Structural verification and new reactivity for Stang’s reagent, [PhI(CN)][OTf]

Working Paper
This content is a preprint and has not undergone peer review at the time of posting.

Abstract

The structure of Stang’s reagent [PhI(CN)][OTf] is confirmed by X-ray crystallography and is determined to be best described as an ion-pair in organic solution. It is found to be a strong Lewis acid, but reaction with pyridine ligands gives [Pyr-CN][OTf] salts via redox and represents the first path to a new derivative of the CDAP reagent widely used as an activation agent for polysaccharides.
