As it approaches the it electron cloud of the alkene, Bt2 becomes temporarily polarized, rendering one of the bromine atoms electrophilic (6+). This bromine atom becomes sufEciendy electrophilic to react with the alkene but is not sufficiently electrophilic to react with benzene. The presence of iron (Fe) in the reaction mixture enhances the electrophilicity of this bromine atom. To understand how iron accomplishes this task, we must recognize that iron itself is not the real catalyst. Rather, it first reacts with Bt2 to generate iron tribromide (FeBr3). 

Iron tribromide, a Lewis acid, is the real catalyst in the reaction between benzene and bromine. Specifically, FeBta interacts with Bt2 to form a complex which reacts as if it were Br. ... 

Iron tribromide is a Lewis acid that interacts with Br2 and generates Br, which is sufficiently electrophilic to be attacked by benzene. 

Predict the major product obtained when each of the following compounds is treated with bromine in the presence of iron tribromide. 

Compound A and compound B are both aromatic esters with molecular formula CsHsOa. When treated with bromine in the presence of iron tribromide, compound A is converted into only one product, while compound B is converted into two different monobromination products. Identify the structure of compound A and compound B.

Reaction of the iron complex salt 602 with the arylamine 921 in the presence of air led directly to the tricarbonyl(ri -4b,8a-dihydro-9H-carbazole)iron complex (923) by a one-pot C-C and C-N bond formation. Demetalation of complex 923 and subsequent aromatization by catalytic dehydrogenation afforded 3,4-dimethoxy-l-heptyl-2-methylcarbazole (924), a protected carbazoquinocin C. Finally, ether cleavage of 924 with boron tribromide followed by oxidation in air provided carbazoquinocin C (274) (640) (Scheme 5.120). 

Aluminum trichloride is the most commonly used catalyst, although aluminum tribromide is more efficient.1 For the rearrangement of l-broino-2-chloro-1,L2-lrifluoroethane (3) to 2-bromo-2-chloro-l,l,l-trifhioroethane (4). none of the following Lewis acids are effective iron(III) chloride. iron(III) bromide, antimony(III) chloride, antimony(V) chloride. tin(IV) chloride, titanium(IV) chloride, zinc(II) chloride, and boron trifluoride-diethyl ether complex.1" ... 

The catalysts used successfully in the liquid phase in the order of their efficiency are anti-niony(V) chloride, aluminum tribromide, aluminum trichloride, and iron(Ill) chloride. Zinc(ll) chloride, tin(ll) chloride, boron trifluoride diethyl ether complex, and aluminum trifluoridc do not catalyze the dismutation. 

Cleavage of the iron complex and the ben/yl ether functions is accomplished with boron tribromide solution.
