The increasingly widespread applications of α,ω-dibromides motivated development of a scalable, inexpensive process to rapidly convert selected α,ω-alkanediols to the corresponding dibromides. Diols were heated with only 48% aq HBr and an organic solvent, using a Dean-Stark apparatus modified to fractionate the azeotropic distillate, thereby maintaining a higher HBr concentration and reaction rate in the pot. Intensified distillation also increased the reaction rate. Various other substrate, solvent, and parameter effects have been discovered and rationalized.
ALLYL SULFIDE COMPOUNDS, AND COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS USING SAID COMPOUNDS FOR REPELLING BLOOD-FEEDING ARTHROPODS

Page/Page column 15, (2008/12/04)
This invention relates to compositions of one or more compounds that incorporate one or more allyl sulfide, allyl disulfide or allyl polysulfide moieties, or one or more allyl sulfide, allyl disulfide or allyl polysulfide moieties and one or more hydroxyl groups, used in effective amount in formulations, including emulsions, to repel blood-feeding ectoparasitic arthropods, including mosquitoes, and to deter them from landing and feeding when applied to the skin, clothing or environment of animals, including humans. Said compounds can include, but are not limited to, 8-allyl-sulfanyloctan-1-ol. This invention also relates to compositions comprising one or more of said compounds in further combination with other arthropod repellent and deterrent compounds, including vanillin. These compounds may be formulated with inert ingredients to form a liquid, gel, paste, soap, spray, aerosol or powder.
