- POLYBROMINATED AROMATIC COMPOUNDS. IV. METHOXYDEBROMINATION REACTIONS OF POLYBROMOBENZENES IN PYRIDINE
-
The rates were measured and the orientation was studied for the methoxydebromination of all polybromobenzenes C6HnBr6-n (n = 0-3) in pyridine at 115 deg C.From comparison of the partial rates of substitution of the bromine atom at various positions of the benzene ring it was found that the activating effect of the bromine atom in relation to the point of nucleophilic attack changes in the order o-Br > m-Br > p-Br, and the directing selectivity of the bromine is low (compared with fluorine in the methoxydefluorination of polyfluorobenzenes) and increases with decrease in the number of bromine atoms in the aromatic ring of the substrate.

- POLYBROMINATED AROMATIC COMPOUNDS. III. SYNTHESIS OF BROMINE-SUBSTITUTED ANISOLES
-
Reliable methods were developed for the synthesis of di-, tri-, and tetrabromoanisoles, and all the possible individual isomers were synthesized.The structures of the isomers were proved by alternative synthesis and spectral methods (PMR, IR).It was shown that the published data are incorrect in a number of cases; either the final product was assigned the incorrect structure, or the published methods led to mixture of the various isomers.

- Alkyl Nitrite-Metal Halide Deamination Reactions. 7. Synthetic Coupling of Electrophilic Bromination with Substitutive Deamination for Selective Synthesis of Multiply Brominated Aromatic Compounds from Arylamines
-
Aromatic amines undergo substitution with copper(II)bromide that is in competition with substitutive deamination when these reactions are performed with tert-butyl nitrite.Except for the exceptionally reactive 4-substituted 1-aminonaphthalenes,which undergo selective bromine substitution at the 1- and 2-positions in relatively high isolated yields,rates for oxidative bromination and substitutive deamination are not sufficiently different that selective multiple bromination can be achieved.Oxidative bromination of N,N-dimethylaniline by copper(II)bromide occurs with partial dealkylation,and nitration products are observed from reactions performed with copper(II)bromide and tert-butyl nitrite.Implications of these results for the successful utilization of copper(II)bromide/tert-butyl nitrite combinations in substitutive deamination reactions of aromatic amines are discussed.Multiply brominated aromatic compounds are produced from aromatic amines in high yield through treatment of the aromatic amine with the combination of molecular bromine and catalytic quantities of copper(II)bromide and,following a normally brief time delay,with tert-butyl nitrite.All unsubstituted aromatic ring positions ortho and para to the amino group,as well as the position of the amino group,are substituted by bromine.The only observed byproducts from use of this procedure (usually 2percent yield) are the partially brominated benzene derivatives.
