Abstract
Molecular iodine has acquired an important role in organic synthesis due to its unique and powerful feature to catalyze organic transformations on account of its mild Lewis acidic character. The current review enlightens the versatile nature of the catalyst for numerous organic strategies including the synthesis of various heterocyclic compounds, iodination, protection- deprotection of functional groups etc.

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
