Abstract

After comparing our previous and newer results for numerous oxidative aromatic iodination experiments using various brands of active MnO2 as the oxidants,we recommend the use of a Chemical Manganese Dioxide (Aldrich CMD; 90 +% MnO2) as the oxidant of choice, since it is satisfactorily pure and chemically active, and is notably less costly than other options.
