a

As in Table 1, but on 1 mmol scale in 2 mL of THF/NEP. Reaction times were 15–24 h.

b

Yield after purification. For complete selectivity data, see Tables S1 and S2 in the Supporting Information.

c

A 1 mmol-scale reaction run on the benchtop (Procedure B) gave an 82% GC yield.

d

Reaction was run on a 0.5 mmol scale.

e

NMR yield of 3j. Isolated product is contaminated with 9% of 3a from hydrodeiodination.

f

Yield is an average of two runs, one at 0.5 mmol scale and one at 1 mmol scale.
