A Facile Synthesis of Alkyl Iodides and Deuterated Alkyl Iodides by Hydroiodination and Deuterioiodination of Olefins

Abstract
Chlorotrimethylsilane/sodium iodide in the presence of water has been found as facile method for the hydroiodination of olefins to alkyl iodides under mild conditions. This procedure has successfully been extended to the preparation of deuterated alkyl iodides by using deuterium oxide in place of water.
