RETENTION OF CONFIGURATION IN DOUBLE BOND PROTECTION-DEPROTECTION BY BROMINATION-CATHODIC DEBROMINATION
Husstedt, Urda,Schaefer, Hans J.
, p. 623 - 624 (1981)
The double bond can be mildly protected by bromination with PyHBr3; deprotection is achieved by cathodic reduction at -1.4 V.The overall yields range from 68 to 99 percent, the configuration of the double bond is retained with at least 96 percent.

The stereochemistry of the crystalline 9,10,12,13-tetrabromostearic acid obtained by bromination of linoleic acid has been established by X-ray crystallographic analysis.The structures of the corresponding oily tetrabromide, and of the two derived 1,8,9,11,12-pentabromoheptadecanes, follow.
