Dibenziodolium and diphenyliodonium triflates display high catalytic activity for the multicomponent reaction that leads to a series of imidazopyridines. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicate both salts can play role hybrid hydrogen- halogen-bond-donating organocatalysts, which electrophilically activate carbonyl imine groups during process. The ortho-H atoms in vicinal position I atom dual role: forming additional noncovalent bonds with ligated substrate increasing maximum...
