How about mono-bromination of cyclopentylphenylmethanone to 1-bromo-cyclopentyl -phenyl-methanone? Drawing it into a pipet immediately expels it because the pressure builds in the pipet.
Even the warmth of your hand on a pipet filled with bromine will pressurize the pipet and expel the bromine. It can perform allylic bromination or benzylic bromination in the presence of peroxides, without disturbing the double bond, yes. Yes, it will oxidize primary alcohols to aldehydes in polar solvents through forming a hypobromite intermediate.
Interestingly, NBS is more selective for secondary over primary alcohols, and also very selective for oxidation of axial vs equatorial groups in steroid systems. See Chem.
Cyclohexane, no. Yes, but typically only with very electron-rich aromatic species like pyrrole, indole, and furan. NBS generates a bromine radical which then abstracts the allylic Hydrogen on propene because the allylic c-h bond is the weakest c-h bond due to resonance of the resulting allylic radical. However, I was also taught that bromine radicals generated from hbr reacting with RO radicals generated by homolytic cleavage of a peroxide bond will react with the pi bond generating the 1-broompropyl radical as a propagation step of antimarkovnikov addition of hbr in the presence of peroxides.
The radicals will add to the double bond, but the radical created by that carbon-based radical needs something to react with to continue the chain reaction.
Therefore if radical addition happens, it just reverts back to the double bond and bromine radical. In other words, addition to the double bond is a dead end. Could it be bromine radical? Hydrogen peroxide and bromine also gives radical bromine why does only n bromo succinamide give allylic product. Bromine will lead to bromination of the double bond. NBS provides a stable, low-concentration source of Br2.
See this post. Toluene reacted with NBS yields p-bromotoluene, o-bromotoluene, and small amounts of m-bromotoluene…in your example you show it yields the bromine bonded to the methyl in the allylic position. Confused as to how you came to that product?

Allylic Bromination With NBS: How It Works Once Br 2 is formed, the reaction proceeds much like other free-radical halogenation reactions: homolytic cleavage of the Br 2 with light or head initiation , followed by abstraction of the allylic H propagation step 1 and subsequent reaction of this radical with another equivalent of Br 2 to give the desired product.
Dalton, Ved P. Dutta, and Daniel G. Rajeshkumar, S. Kotha, G. Sekar, Org. A combination of N -bromoimide and DBU enables allylic amination reactions of alkenes, in which both internal and external nitrogen nucleophiles can be installed directly.
This protocol provides a complementary access to allylic amination under mild conditions. Wei, F. Liang, X. Zhang, Org. A convenient and efficient method for aminobromination of alkylidenecyclopropanes is reported.
This is exemplified in the stereoselective preparation of N -[ Z bromobutenyl]- p -toluenesulfonamides by using p -toluenesulfonamide and N -bromosuccinimide NBS as nitrogen and bromine sources, respectively. Huang, W. Fu, Synthesis , , In a continuous-flow protocol for the bromination of benzylic compounds with only a small excess of N -bromosuccinimide, the radical reactions were activated with a readily available household compact fluorescent lamp CFL using a simple flow reactor design based on transparent fluorinated ethylene polymer tubing.
All of the reactions were carried out using acetonitrile as the solvent, thus avoiding hazardous chlorinated solvents such as CCl 4. Cantillo, O. Rincon, C.
Mateos, C. Kappe, J. Nishii, M. Ikeda, Y. Hayashi, S. Kawauchi, M. Miura, J. A highly regioselective bromination of activated aromatic compounds has been accomplished using N -bromosuccinimide in tetrabutylammonium bromide.
Predominant para -selective monobromination of activated aromatics, rate acceleration for less reactive substrates on addition of acidic montmorillonite K clay, with or without microwave assistance, are the notable features of this protocol.
Ganguly, P. Dutta, Synthesis , , The use of a hexafluoroisopropanol as solvent enables a mild and regioselective halogenation of a broad range of arenes and heterocycles with N -halosuccinimides in good yields. In addition, the versatility of the method is demonstrated by the development of one-pot sequential dihalogenation and halogenation-Suzuki cross-coupling reactions. Tang, T.
Milcent, B. Crousse, J. A highly para -selective halogenation of arenes bearing electron-donating coordinating groups in the presence of a dimidazolium salt rpovides p -haloarenes in good yields.
A plausible mechanism for the catalytic reaction is proposed. Chen, X. Xiong, Z. Chen, J. Huang, Synlett , , 26 , Highly deactivated aromatic compounds were smoothly monobrominated by treatment with N -bromosuccinimide NBS in concentrated sulfuric acid.
Mild reaction conditions and simple workup provides a practical and commercially viable route for the synthesis of bromo compounds of deactivated aromatics in good yields. Rajesh, M. Somasundaram, R. Saiganesh, K. Balasubramanian, J. N -Halosuccinimides are efficiently activated in trifluoromethanesulfonic acid and BF 3 -H 2 O, allowing the halogenations of deactivated aromatics.
BF 3 -H 2 O is more economic, easy to prepare, nonoxidizing, and offers sufficiently high acidity. Prakash, T. Mathew, D. Hoole, P. Esteves, Q. Wang, G. Rasul, G. Olah, J. Aryl and heteroaryl boronic acids react with N -iodosuccinimide and N -bromosuccinimide to give the corresponding iodo- and bromo-arenes in good to excellent yields. The reaction is usually highly regioselective and yields only the ipso -substituted product. Thiebes, G. Surya Prakash, N. Petasis, G.
Olah, Synlett , , A high-yielding, general, and practical ortho bromination and iodination reaction of different classes of aromatic compounds occurs by Rh III -catalyzed C-H bond activation methodology.
Wencel-Delord, F. Glorius, J. Using cyano as the directing group, a palladium-catalyzed ortho -halogenation I, Br, Cl reaction gave good to excellent yields. The method is compatible to arylnitriles with either electron-withdrawing or electron-donating groups. The present method was successfully applied to the synthesis of the precursors of paucifloral F and isopaucifloral F.
Du, X. Jiang, P. Sun, J. Hreczycho, J. Szudkowska, M. Kubicki, B. Marciniec, Org. Prakash, S. Roy, J. Kuang, Q. Yang, H. Senboku, M. Tokuda, Synthesis , , Notable features of this method include low catalyst loadings, mild reaction conditions, and mostly good diastereoselectivity. Ye, L. The reaction represents a rare example of a direct halogenation of electron-poor acrylic acid derivatives to access a variety of differently substituted Z -haloacrylic acid derivatives.
Kuhl, N. Glorius, Org. In an NBS-promoted allyloxyl addition-Claisen rearrangement-dehydrobromination cascade reaction, more than 20 substituted alkynylsulfonamides were reacted with allyl alcohols to generate 2 Z -2,4-dienamides in good yields. Theoretical calculations suggested that a [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangement be the rate-limiting step.
Ding, Y. Li, C. Tao, B. Cheng, H. Zhai, Org. Jyothi, S. HariPrasad, Synlett , , A mild, one-pot cyanoimidation of aldehydes using cyanamide as a nitrogen source and NBS as an oxidant was achieved in high yields without the addition of a catalyst. Subsequently, the substituted N -cyanobenzimidate products may also undergo a cyclization reaction to give 1,2,4-triazole derivatives in high yields.
Yin, W. Steven Farmer Sonoma State University. Allylic Bromination Mechanism Step 1: Initiation Once the pre-initiation step involving NBS produces small quantities of Br 2 , the bromine molecules are homolytically cleaved by light to produce bromine radicals.
Step 2 and 3: Propagation Step 4: Termination.
