β¦ Synopsis
A simple protocol for the halogenation of arenes utilizing a combination of aqueous hydrogen peroxide (34 %) or tert-butylhydroperoxide (70 %) and hydrohalic acid is presented. A similar procedure of oxyhalogenation involving the in situ generation of positive halogen reagents is applied for the preparation of vieinal trans-dibromoalkanes and dichloroalkanes from alkenes. The reaction of alkenes with a combination of hydrochloric acid and hydrobromic acid with hydrogen peroxide gave a mixture of 1-bromo 2-chloro alkanes and 1,2-dibromoalkanes. Oxidative bromination ofalkynes is also reported under similar conditions.
