3- bromo solution

Add 20 g. of /)-bromoaniline to 20 ml. of water in a 250 ml. beaker, and warm the mixture until the amine melts. Now add 23 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid and without delay stir the mixture mechanically in an ice-water bath, so that a paste of fine /> bromo-aniline hydrochloride crystals separates. Maintain the temperature of the stirred mixture at about 5° whilst slowly adding from a dropping-funnel a solution of 8 5 g. of sodium nitrite in 20 ml. of water con tinue the stirring for 20 minutes after the complete addition of the nitrite. 

On adding i drop of bromine water to catechol, a deep red coloration is produced immediately. On gradually adding bromine water to a solution of hydroquinone, a deep red coloration is produced, followed by the separation of deep green crystals which then dissolve giving a yellow solution, i- and 2-Naphthol will decolorise hromine water, but usually no precipitate of the bromo compound can be obtained. 

Amino acids may be prepared by the action of a large excess of concentrated ammonia solution upon a-chloro- or a-bromo-acids the presence of a considerable amount of ammonium carbonate often increases the yield of monoamino acid, for example ... 

Method 2 (Alkaline hydrolysis). Use a solution of 15 g. of p-bromo-acetanihde in 30 ml. of boiling ethyl alcohol, and add a solution of 7 5 g. of potassium hydroxide in 10 ml. of water.

The p-bromoaniline separates as an oil, which soon sohdifies. Filter at the pump and wash with cold water. Purify the crude p-bromoanihne aa follows. Dissolve it in a mixture of 120 ml. of water and 75 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid, add 1-2 g. of decolourising carbon, and warm on a water bath for 10 minutes. Filter through a fluted paper or through two thicknesses of filter paper on a Buchner funnel. Pour the filtrate slowly and with vigorous stirring into a mixture of 60 ml. of 10 per cent, sodium hydroxide solution and 100 g. of crushed ice. Thep-bromo-aniline crystallises out.

In the preparation of bromo compounds by the Sandmeyer reaction, the amine is generally diazotised in sulphuric acid solution (or in hydrobromic acid solution), and the resulting aryldiazonium sulphate (or bromide) is treated with a solution of cuprous bromide in excess of hydrobromic acid the addition... 

Bromo-4-aminotoluene hydrochloride. Transfer the partially dried 3-bromo-4-acetaminotoluene to a 1 5-litre round-bottomed flask, add 250 ml. of rectified spirit, and reflux on a water bath until the sohd dissolves completely. Introduce through the condenser 250 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid to the boihng solution and continue the refluxing for a further 3 hours. During this time crystals of 3-bromo-4-aminotoluene hydrochloride separate. Pour the hot mixture into a 1-Utre beaker and cool thoroughly. Filter the crystals of the hydrochloride at the pump through a Buchner funnel and wash rapidly with two 50 ml. portions of chilled rectified spirit. The yield of the hydrochloride is 150 g. 

Bromo-4-aminotoluene, Suspend the hydrochloride in 400 ml, of water in a 1-Utre beaker equipped with a mechanical stirrer. Add a solution of 70 g. of sodium hydroxide in 350 ml. of water.

This weighs 125 g. and can be used directly in the next step (3). 

In a 500 ml. bolt-head flask provided with a thermometer (reaching almost to the bottom) and a calcium chloride (or cotton wool) guard tube, place 100 g. of a-bromo-wo-valerj l bromide and 50 g. of dry, finely-divided urea. Start the reaction by warming the flask on a water bath the temperature soon rises to about 80°. Maintain this temperature for about 3 horns the mass will liquefy and then resolidify. Transfer the sticky reaction product to a large beaker containing saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, stir mechanically and add more saturated sodium bicarbonate solution in small quantities until effervescence ceases. Filter at the pump, suck as dry as possible and dry the crude bromural upon filter paper in the air. RecrystaUise the dry product from toluene. Alternatively, recrystaUise the moist product from hot water (ca. 700 ml.). The yield of pure brommal, m.p. 154-155°, is 28 g. 

First-order nitrations. The kinetics of nitrations in solutions of acetyl nitrate in acetic anhydride were first investigated by Wibaut. He obtained evidence for a second-order rate law, but this was subsequently disproved. A more detailed study was made using benzene, toluene, chloro- and bromo-benzene. The rate of nitration of benzene was found to be of the first order in the concentration of aromatic and third order in the concentration of acetyl nitrate the latter conclusion disagrees with later work (see below). Nitration in solutions containing similar concentrations of acetyl nitrate in acetic acid was too slow to measure, but was accelerated slightly by the addition of more acetic anhydride. Similar solutions in carbon tetrachloride nitrated benzene too quickly, and the concentration of acetyl nitrate had to be reduced from 0-7 to o-i mol 1 to permit the observation of a rate similar to that which the more concentrated solution yields in acetic anhydride.

Unlike nitration. 2-amino-4-methylselenazole can be directly bromi-nated, using bromine in carbon tetrachloride solution, to give 2-amino-5-bromo-4-methylselenazole hydrobromide [m.p. 180°C (decomp.)] (19). The free base cannot be isolated. Use of excess of bromine can lead to destruction of the molecule. 

The peak near 3085 cm disappears only for 2.4-disubstituted derivatives. Its frequency is slightly higher for 2- than for 4-substituted compounds. The vC(2)H and vC(4,H vibrations seem to be nearly equivalent and usually give rise to an unique peak, except in the case of 5-bromo-and 5-isopropylthiazoles in CCI4 solution, where this peak is split into two bands. 

Benzocycloheptathiazoles (60) were prepared by the reaction of 6-bromo-l-benzosuberone (59) with the corresponding thioamides, by refluxing for 4 hr in alcoholic solution (Scheme 27) with R = Me, yield is 35%.
