Lithium iodide (LiI) can be used as a catalyst to synthesize:
N-alkyl 2-pyridone derivatives via O- to N-[1,3]-alkyl migration.[1]
β-mannosides and β-rhamnosides from glycosyl hemiacetals via one-pot chlorination, iodination, and glycosylation reaction.[2]
It can also be used as:
Solid electrolyte in the synthesis of Vycor glass/LiI composites applicable in the development of solid-state batteries.[3]
Iodine source to synthesize primary, secondary, and bridgehead tertiary alkyl iodides by PPh3-catalyzed iododecarboxylation of aliphatic carboxylates.[4]
