Abstract

Tin-free Giese reaction and the related radical carbonylation process proceeded efficiently in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride and tetrabutylammonium cyanoborohydride. The reaction took place chemoselectively at the carbon−iodine bond but not at the carbon−bromine and carbon−chlorine bonds. The iodine atom transfer followed by hydride reduction of the resulting carbon−iodine bond is proposed as a possible mechanism.
