N-Bromosuccinimide or NBS is a chemical reagent used in radical substitution, electrophilic addition, and electrophilic substitution reactions in organic chemistry. NBS can be a convenient source of Br • , the bromine radical.
The Wohl–Ziegler reaction [1] [2] is a chemical reaction that involves the allylic or benzylic bromination of hydrocarbons using an N-bromosuccinimide and a radical initiator. [3] Best yields are achieved with N-bromosuccinimide in carbon tetrachloride solvent. Several reviews have been published. [4] [5]
A chemical glycosylation reaction involves the coupling of a glycosyl donor, to a glycosyl acceptor forming a glycoside. [1] [2] [3] If both the donor and acceptor are sugars, then the product is an oligosaccharide.
Structure of N-bromosuccinimide, a common brominating reagent in organic chemistry. Like the other carbon–halogen bonds, the C–Br bond is a common functional group that forms part of core organic chemistry. Formally, compounds with this functional group may be considered organic derivatives of the bromide anion.

Several reagents can be substituted for bromine. Sodium hypochlorite, [4] lead tetraacetate, [5] N-bromosuccinimide, and (bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodo)benzene [6] can effect a Hofmann rearrangement. The intermediate isocyanate can be trapped with various nucleophiles to form stable carbamates or other products rather than undergoing decarboxylation.
N-Iodosuccinimide (NIS) is a reagent used in organic chemistry for the iodination of alkenes and as a mild oxidant. [ 2 ] NIS is the iodine analog of N -chlorosuccinimide (NCS) and N -bromosuccinimide (NBS) which are used for similar applications.
3-Hydroxylcarbonyls, called aldols, release water upon standing at room temperature: RC(O)CH 2 CH(OH)R' → RC(O)CH=CHR' + H 2 O. The reaction is induced by dehydrating reagents. For example, 2-methyl-cyclohexan-1-ol dehydrates to 1-methylcyclohexene in the presence of Martin's sulfurane, which reacts irreversibly with water. [6] [7]
