Abstract: A one pot method is provided for preparing an (octyloxyphenyl) phenyliodonium tosylate and the corresponding hexafluorometalloid salt. n-Octylphenyl ether is initially prepared using a halooctane and phenol in the presence of a phase transfer catalyst followed by the addition of iodobenzene, a peracid, and p-toluene sulfonic acid.
