The direct functionalisation of alkanes through bromination and iodination has been successfully achieved. The combination of stoichiometric mixtures of elemental halogen and sodium alkoxides leads to the formation of alkyl hypobromites and hypoiodites as reagents. The halogenation occurs without external photostimulation under thermal reaction conditions. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
