• ; biheterocycles; hypervalent iodine; iodine; oxidatively assisted esterification; Introduction In recent years, the interest in heterocyclic organohypervalent iodine compounds has experienced an unprecedented growth [1][2][3][4][5][6]. A variety of new hypervalent iodine heterocycles have been prepared, and

• ), which is in agreement with the previously proposed mechanism of oxidatively assisted esterification or amidation [23][38]. Conclusion In summary, we have prepared the new bicyclic benziodazole 7a by the oxidation of 2-iodo-N,N’-diisopropylisophthalamide (6a) with m-CPBA. The solid structure of 7a was

• (1)–N(1) 2.177 (4) Å; N(1)–I(1)–C(1) 76.89 (18)°; N(2)–I(1)–C(1) 77.02 (18)°; N(1)–I(1)–N(2) 153.90 (15)°. Representative examples of benziodoxoles and benziodazoles. Preparation of bicyclic benziodazole 7a. Benziodadiazole 7a mediated oxidatively assisted esterification and amidation reactions
