Farrar,Sienkowska,Kaszynski
, p. 4039 - 4045 (2000)
1,3,6,8-Tetrabromophenantherene (1) is prepared in four steps from 2,4,6-tribromobenzoic acid (4) in an overall yield of 12%. The key transformation used in the synthesis is a stoichiomteric Ullmann reaction.
Mercury-assisted solvolyses of alkyl halides. Simple procedures for the preparation of nitrate esters, acetate esters, alcohols and ethers
McKillop,Ford

The reactions of a wide variety of alkyl halides with mercury(I) and/or (II) nitrate in 1,2-dimethoxyethane, mercury(II) acetate in acetic acid, aqueous mercury(II) perchlorate, and mercury(II) perchlorate in alcohol solvents have been investigated; as a result, simple high yield procedures for the conversion of alkyl halides into the corresponding nitrate esters, acetate esters, alcohols and ethers have been developed.
