Graphene Oxide Promoted Oxidative Bromination of Anilines and Phenols in Water

The mildly acidic and oxidative nature of graphene oxide, with its large surface area available for catalytic activity, has been explored in aromatic nuclear bromination chemistry for the first time. The versatile catalytic activity of graphene oxide (GO) has been used to selectively and rapidly brominate anilines and phenols in water. The best results were obtained at ambient temperatures using molecular bromine in a protocol promoted by oxidative bromination catalyzed by GO; these transformations proceeded with 100% atom economy with respect to bromine and high selectivities for the tribromoanilines and -phenols. Reduced graphene oxide (r-GO) was observed to form after the second recycle (third use) of GO. This technique is also effective with N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) as the brominating reagent. In the case of NBS, reactions were instantaneous and the GO displayed excellent recyclability without any loss of activity over several cycles.

Copper-catalyzed oxybromination and oxychlorination of primary aromatic amines using LiBr or LiCl and molecular oxygen

Nuclear oxybromination of unprotected aromatic primary amines catalyzed by copper(II) acetate [Cu(OAc)2] under mild conditions has been developed, in which bromide ions are used as halogenating agents and dioxygen as a final oxidant. The catalyst shows not only high regioselectivity for para- or ortho-isomers but also a remarkable chemoselectivity for monobromination. Oxychlorination of aniline can also be performed under similar conditions, albeit with lower selectivities, with N-phenylacetamide being the main by-product. This simple catalytic method represents ecologically benign and economically attractive synthetic pathway to expensive low-volume aromatic haloamines.
