Aromatic halides constitute a valuable class of building blocks that are commonly used in organic synthesis. In this study, we demonstrate usage of aryl bromides and aryl iodides in C-Br or C-I bond formation. Methyl 2-bromobenzoate and 2-nitrophenyl iodides were developed as mild and effective bromination and iodination reagents for functionalization of arene-tethered diols. This efficient cascaded catalysis can be applied to the total syntheses of natural product Mafaicheenamine A and Claulamine A.
