A convenient and practical method for conversion of primary alkyl chlorides to highly pure bromides (≥99%)

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919408012653

Repeated treatment (second after the aqueous work-up) of primary alkyl chlorides with ten equivalents (each) of lithium bromide in 3-pentanone at 120 °C for a total of five hours gave the corresponding bromides in excellent yield (86-96%) and with high chemical purity (≥99%).
