A one-pot, high-yielding iodination of hydroxypyridines and hydroxyquinolines is described. The iodination proceeds under mild conditions, and the products are obtained in high yield without the need for chromatographic purification. In addition, the iodination works on both 2- and 4-hydroxypyridines and -hydroxyquinolines.
