Bromination of terephthalaldehyde

Conclusions The direct bromination of terephthalaldehyde in the presence of excess anhydrous AlCl₃ leads to the formation of terephthaloyl bromide.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 2, pp. 480–481, February, 1977.     

Bromination of arylfurans

The bromination of 2-arylfurans has been studied. The structures of the compounds obtained have been determined with the aid of NMR spectra.Translated from Khimiya Geterotisiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 450–454, April, 1980.     

Bromination of Binor-S

Bromination of binor-S resulted in a mixture of products containing several pairs of isomers. Three major processes were found to be involved in the reaction mechanism, i.e., bromination, hydrobromination, and dehydrobromination. The structures of nine compounds derived from dibromide 6 were identified by spectroscopic methods. Yields between isomers were rationalized by comparison of their relative strain energies calculated by force field model (MM2). The crystal structures of a tribromide (9) and a pentabromide (15) were solved by X-ray diffraction analyses. Their crystal packing patterns indicated the existence of attractive interactions among the bromine atoms.     

Bromination of emodin

Using emodin as an example, it has been shown that in the bromination of hydroxyanthraquinones the qualitative composition and quantitative ratio of the reaction products depend on the nature of the brominating agent and the solvent, the ratio of the rea Lants, and the temperature regime. In order to obtain bromo-3-methyl-1,6,8-trihydroxyanthraquinone it is recommended to use dioxane dibromide in acid solution as the brominating agent, and to obtain 5-bromo-3-methyl-1,6,8-trihydroxyanthraquinone the same reagent in dioxane solution. The optimum conditions for obtaining 3-bromomethyl-1,6,8-trihydroxyanthraquinone by the methods of initiated bromination and photobromination have been selected.S. M. Kirov Kazakh State University, Alma-Ata. Translated from Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 618–621, September–October, 1990.     

Bromination of octaphenylsilsesquioxane

The bromination and characterization of octaphenylsilsesquioxane is reported. The reaction is successful with a variety of methods, including microwave assisted synthesis. The analysis of the obtained product mix was carried out with a combination of high performance liquid chromatography and matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). The analysis indicates that the bromination leads to multiple bromines per octaphenylsilsesquioxane molecule with a distribution dominated by statistical odds and the reaction conditions. The results showed that the bromination is not selective and does not lead to a single defined product.

Bromination of triphenyloxonium cations

Conclusions The triphenyloxonium cation is brominated only in the presence of anhydrous AgBF₄ in which the first Br atom enters into each benzene ring almost exclusively in the para position to the onium center, but the tris(4-bromophenyl)oxonium cation thus formed is readily brominated further under the same conditions with the formation of tris(3,4-dibromophenyl) oxonium borofluoride.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, No. 6, pp. 1392–1395, June, 1984.     

Bromination of 3-phenylindoles

Brominations of 3-phenylindole (1a) and its 1-methyl-(1b) and 1-acetyl-(1c) derivatives with NBS in AcOH and CCl₄ have been carried out. In AcOH 1 gave 2-bromo derivatives (2) in high yields and the relative reactivity was found to be NH > NMe ? NAc by competitive reactions. In boiling CCl₄1a and 1b gave 2 but bromination of 1c did not proceed. Bromination of 1a with 2 moles of NBS in AcOH gave 2,6-(major) and 2,5-dibromides (8 and 9). Reaction of 2a with thiourea gave 19. Selective reduction of the bromine atom at the 2-position in 2,6-dibromide (10) was achieved by Zn3CuNaOH, and irradiation of 8 in EtOH-alkali reduced 2,6-dibromide to 1a.     

3,5-二烷氧基甲苯的溴化反应研究

3,5-二甲氧基甲苯在偶氮二异丁腈的存在下与N-溴代丁二酰亚胺(NBS)反应,产物不是3,5-二甲氧基苄溴,而是2-溴-3,5-二甲氧基甲苯和2,6-二溴-3,5-二甲氧基甲苯.同样条件下,3,5-二乙酰氧基甲苯与NBS反应则生成3,5-二乙酰氧基苄溴.GAUSSIAN 03计算的结果表明,3,5-二甲氧基甲苯中苯环碳原子上的电荷密度高于侧链上碳原子上的电荷密度,因此溴自由基更容易取代苯环上的氢,而3,5-二乙酰氧基甲苯的情况恰好相反,故产物是3,5-二乙酰氧基苄溴.     

Bromination of 4,6-dimethoxyindoles

The bromination of activated 4,6-dimethoxyindoles can be carried out effectively provided that an electron-withdrawing group is also present. Thus the range of products includes 2-bromo-7-formyl or 2-bromo-7-acetylindoles 13a–c and 16, 7-bromo-2-acetylindole 21, 2,5-dibromo-7-acetylindole 17, 2,5-dibromo-N-sulfonylindole 27, and 2,7-dibromo-N-acetylindole 24. Acetyl and sulfonyl protecting groups on nitrogen can be removed to give 2-bromoindoles 28a–b, 2,5-dibromoindole 29, and 2,7-dibromoindole 4.     

Bromination of photochromic spironaphthoxazines

Direct bromination of photochromic compounds of the spironaphthoxazine and spironaphthopyran series was performed using N-bromosuccinimide to obtain both photochromic bromine-substituted spiro compounds and nonphotochromic 2-(naphtho[1,2-d]oxazol-2-yl)-3H-indolium bromides. The structures of the resulting products were established by NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The mechanism of bromination taking into account the involvement of both closed and open (colored) forms of spiro compounds was proposed.     

Bromination of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles

The bromination of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles in 47% hydrobromic acid at elevated temperature has led to a general preparative method for the synthesis in high yield of otherwise difficulty accessible brominated 2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles. The typical addition reaction is apparently eliminated under these reaction conditions and substitution takes place exclusively. Bromination of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole occurs successively at positions 4 and 7. 4-Substituted 2,1,3-benzothia-diazoles are selectively brominated at position 7. 5-Bromo- and 5-methyl-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole are brominated consecutively at positions 4 and 7.
