2,4,6-Tribromoaniline can be prepared by treating bromine water with aniline in a solution of acetic acid or dilute hydrochloric acid: [1] By reacting bromine with aniline in water, a white precipitate immediately forms and that is 2,4,6-tribromoaniline
Illustrative is the acetylation of aniline. First aniline is dissolved in water using one equivalent of hydrochloric acid. This solution is subsequently treated, sequentially, with acetic anhydride and aqueous sodium acetate. Aniline attacks acetic anhydride followed by deprotonation of the ammonium ion: Acetate then acts as a leaving group:
An example of alpha halogenation is the mono-bromination of acetone ((CH 3) 2 C=O), carried out under either acidic or basic conditions, to give bromoacetone: Acidic (in acetic acid): Reaction mechanism for the bromination of acetone while in the presence of acetic acid. Basic (in aqueous NaOH):
The mechanism for bromination of benzene. The mechanism for iodination is slightly different: iodine (I 2) is treated with an oxidizing agent such as nitric acid to obtain the electrophilic iodine ("I +", probably IONO 2). Other conditions for iodination include I 2, HIO 3, H 2 SO 4, and N-iodosuccinimide, H 2 SO 4.
More recently, trifluoromethylation of diazonium salts has been developed and is referred to as a 'Sandmeyer-type' reaction. Diazonium salts also react with boronates, iodide, thiols, water, hypophosphorous acid and others, [6] and fluorination can be carried out using tetrafluoroborate anions (Balz–Schiemann reaction). However, since these ...
Kerrigan's 2016 Agaricus of North America P45: (Referring to Schaffer's reaction) "In fact I recommend switching to the following modified test. Frank (1988) developed an alternative formulation in which aniline oil is combined with glacial acetic acid (GAA, essentially distilled vinegar) in a 50:50 solution. GAA is a much safer, less reactive ...
In 1967 the group of George A. Olah obtained NMR spectra of tetramethylethylenebromonium ions by dissolving 2,3-dibromo-2,3-dimethylbutane in magic acid at −60 °C. [5] The spectrum for the corresponding fluorine compound on the other hand was consistent with a rapidly equilibrating pair of β-fluorocarbocations.
Bromination is more selective than chlorination because the reaction is less exothermic. Illustrative of the bromination of an alkene is the route to the anesthetic halothane from trichloroethylene: [6] Iodination and bromination can be effected by the addition of iodine and bromine to alkenes.
