We have used density-functional theory to investigate the neighboring-group stabilization of iodine, arsenic, and phosphorus-centered oxyanion moieties in species such as deprotonated 2-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) and its analogs. The magnitudes of different stabilizing effects and further candidates for analogous stabilization are analyzed. © Springer-Verlag 200
