Description
LiBr/Chlorotrimethylsilane reagent participates in the conversion of alcohols to bromides.Lithium bromide (LiBr) may be employed as a catalyst in the following studies: Transformation of (aromatic- and α,β-unsaturated) aldehydes to dithioacetals via solvent-free dithioacetalization. Synthesis of olefins via condensation reaction of carbonyl compounds with active methylene compounds. Green synthesis of β-amino alcohols. Chemo- and regioselective bromination of aromatic compounds was carried out by employing LiBr/ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) reagent system (as a source of Br+ ion)
