The regioselectivity of reductive debromination of substituted pentabromobenzenes C6Br5X (X = NH2, OMe, Me, H, Cl, F, and NO2) under the action of ButONa in DMSO containing ButOH has been studied. The reaction followed the halophilic mechanism via carbanions.

As a rule, tri-, tetra- and pentahaloarenes readily undergo ortho-lithiation when treated with amide-type bases. However, halogen migration occurs whenever the substrate contains three or more contiguous halogen atoms, provided that at least one of them is bromine or iodine. Dismutation and reduction processes often take place concomitantly. In this manner, a variety of organometallic intermediates may be formed, the driving force always being a decrease in basicity. When no such energy gain can be achieved, a sterically crowded substrate may just turn out to be inert; this was found to be the case with 1,5-dibromo-3-fluoro-2-(trimethylsilyl)benzene, 1,5-dibromo-3-fluoro-2,4-bis(trimethylsilyl)benzene, and 1,5-dibromo-3-fluoro-2,4-diiodobenzene. Buttressing effects are apparently strong enough to prevent expedient deprotonation of those substrates.

In a procedure of extreme simplicity and rapidity a mixture of an aromatic primary amine, copper (I) cyanide and an alkyl nitrite in dimethyl sulphoxide yielded fair to moderate yields of the corresponding nitriles. Side processes observed were reduction (NH2&[H), nitration (NH2←NO2) and hydroxylation (NH2&[OH). In the case of polyhaloanilines halogen dance products could be detected.

Aromatic amines undergo substitution with copper(II)bromide that is in competition with substitutive deamination when these reactions are performed with tert-butyl nitrite.Except for the exceptionally reactive 4-substituted 1-aminonaphthalenes,which undergo selective bromine substitution at the 1- and 2-positions in relatively high isolated yields,rates for oxidative bromination and substitutive deamination are not sufficiently different that selective multiple bromination can be achieved.Oxidative bromination of N,N-dimethylaniline by copper(II)bromide occurs with partial dealkylation,and nitration products are observed from reactions performed with copper(II)bromide and tert-butyl nitrite.Implications of these results for the successful utilization of copper(II)bromide/tert-butyl nitrite combinations in substitutive deamination reactions of aromatic amines are discussed.Multiply brominated aromatic compounds are produced from aromatic amines in high yield through treatment of the aromatic amine with the combination of molecular bromine and catalytic quantities of copper(II)bromide and,following a normally brief time delay,with tert-butyl nitrite.All unsubstituted aromatic ring positions ortho and para to the amino group,as well as the position of the amino group,are substituted by bromine.The only observed byproducts from use of this procedure (usually 2percent yield) are the partially brominated benzene derivatives.
