Conclusions

• Iodonium ylides and Iminoiodinanes are excellent substitutesfor the diazo-precusors of carbenes and nitrenes.

• Their stability and ease of synthesis enhances the syntheticTheir stability and ease of synthesis enhances the synthetic viability.

• Their reversibility and capability to be tuned, opens access t l tito new explorations.
