• [8], Et4N+Br− in the presence of hypervalent iodine reagents [9], and NBS in tetrabutylammonium bromide under molten salt conditions [10]. There is a recent report of the preparation of 3-bromocoumarins from acyclic precursors through bromination of a Wittig reagent with NBS followed by tandem Wittig

• heterocycles has been intensively investigated [30][31][32][33][34]. Most of the developed methods involve the use of haloacetylenes. In contrast, our group has focused on the use of more reactive alkynyl hypervalent iodine reagents in order to expand the scope of direct alkynylation methods under milder

• recycling of the iodine reagent is concerned. The broad use of hypervalent iodine reagents is still hampered by tedious purification and recycling protocols. Commonly, purification relies on chromatography. Recently, tagging strategies for reagents and catalysts have widely been investigated that allow easy
