A strategy for C-H functionalization of arenes and heteroarenes has been developed to allow site-selective incorporation of various anions, including Cl, Br, OMs, OTs, and OTf. This approach is enabled by <i>in situ</i> generation of reactive, non-symmetric iodanes by combining anions and bench-stable PhI(OAc)<sub>2</sub>. The utility of this mechanism is demonstrated via <i>para</i>-selective chlorination of medicinally relevant arenes, as well as site-selective C-H chlorination of heteroarenes ...[more]
