Abstract
Reaction of acyl iodides RC(O)I (R = Me, Ph) with alcohols R'OH (R' = Me, Et, i-Pr, t-Bu, CH2 = CHCH2, HC≡CCH2) provides in the corresponding organyl iodides R'I. Unlike that 2-chloroethanol and phenol (R' = CH2CH2Cl, Ph) react with RC(O)I in the same way as with acyl chlorides yielding esters RCO2R'. This reaction path occurs partially also with methanol and ethanol.
