Bromide vinylic

BrCHi CHjBr. A colourless liquid with a sweet odour, m.p. 10°C, b.p. 132°C. Manufactured by passing ethene through bromine or bromine and water at about 20 C. Chemical properties similar to those of 1,2-dichloroethane when heated with alkali hydroxides, vinyl bromide is formed. Used extensively in petrols to combine with the lead formed by the decomposition of lead tetraethyl, as a fumigant for stored products and as a nematocide. 

Aryl and vinylic bromides and iodides react with the least substituted and most electrophilic carbon atoms of activated olefins, e.g., styrenes, allylic alcohols, a,p-unsaturated esters and nitriles. 

Dibromopropene was used in an efficient thermodynamically controlled alkylation. Hydrolysis of the vinyl bromide yielded a 1,4-diketone (S.C. Welch, 1979). 

The stereospedfic and regioselective hydrobromination of alkynes with chlorobis(T -cyclopentadienyl)hydrozirconium and NBS produces ( )-vinylic bromides in good yields. The bromine atom usually adds regioselectively to the carbon atom that bears the smaller substituent and stereoselectively trans to the larger substituent (D.W. Hart, 1975 M. Nakatsuka,... 

In the alkylative cyclization of the 1,6-enyne 372 with vinyl bromide, formation of both the five-membered ring 373 by exn mode carbopalladation and isomerization of the double bonds and the six-membered ring 374 by endo mode carbopalladation are observed[269]. Their ratio depends on the catalytic species. Also, the cyclization of the 1,6-enyne 375 with /i-bromostyrene (376) affords the endo product 377. The exo mode cyclization is commonly observed in many cases, and there are two possible mechanistic explanations for that observed in these examples. One is direct endo mode carbopalladation. The other is the exo mode carbopalladation to give 378 followed by cyclopropana-tion to form 379, and the subsequent cyclopropylcarbinyl-homoallyl rearrangement affords the six-membered ring 380. Careful determination of the E or Z structure of the double bond in the cyclized product 380 is crucial for the mechanistic discussion. 

The Li compound 588 formed by the ort/io-lithiation of A. A -dimethylaniline reacts with vinyl bromide to give the styrene derivative 589(433]. The 2-phe-nylindole 591 is formed by the coupling of l-methyl-2-indolylmagnesium formed in situ from the indolyllithium 590 and MgBr2, with iodobenzene using dppb[434]. 2-Furyl- and 2-thienyllithium in the presence of MgBr2 react with alkenyl halides[435]. The arylallenes 592 and 1,2,4-alkatrienes are prepared by the coupling reaction of the allenyllithium with aryl or alkenyl halides[436]. 

Vinyl Bromide. Vinyl bromide [593-60-2] is prepared by the base-promoted dehydrobromination of ethylene dibromide [106-93 ]. It is used as a comonomer in the production of acrylic fibers. 

THPC—Amide—PoIy(vinyI bromide) Finish. A flame retardant based on THPC—amide plus poly(vinyl bromide) [25951-54-6] (143) has been reported suitable for use on 35/65, and perhaps on 50/50, polyester—cotton blends. It is appUed by the pad-dry-cure process, with curing at 150°C for about 3 min. A typical formulation contains 20% THPC, 3% disodium hydrogen phosphate, 6% urea, 3% trimethylolglycouril [496-46-8] and 12% poly(vinyl bromide) soUds. Approximately 20% add-on is required to impart flame retardancy to a 168 g/m 35/65 polyester—cotton fabric. Treated fabrics passed the FF 3-71 test. However, as far as can be determined, poly(vinyl bromide) is no longer commercially available. 

The Ritter reaction with unsaturated carbenium ions under either silver-assisted solvolysis or photolytic conditions leads to excellent yields of isoquiaolines (173). The ease of preparation of the requited vinyl bromides makes an attractive route to highly substituted isoquiaolines. 

Hydrogen bromide adds to acetylene to form vinyl bromide or ethyHdene bromide, depending on stoichiometry. The acid cleaves acycHc and cycHc ethers. It adds to the cyclopropane group by ring-opening. Additions to quinones afford bromohydroquinones. Hydrobromic acid and aldehydes can be used to introduce bromoalkyl groups into various molecules. For example, reaction with formaldehyde and an alcohol produces a bromomethyl ether. Bromomethylation of aromatic nuclei can be carried out with formaldehyde and hydrobromic acid (6). 

The addition of benzonitrile oxide to acrylic acid gave only the 4-carboxylic acid (441) (59MI41601), while addition to cis- and trans-cinnamic esters gave cis and trans diastereomeric pairs of 4-carboxylic acids (442) (Scheme 100) (59MI41600). Arbisono repeated the experiment and, when methyl c/s-cinnamate was used, in addition to the 4-carboxylic acid some 5-carboxylic acid (442) was isolated (66MI41600). The reaction of vinyl bromides with benzonitrile oxide yielded only an isoxazole and not a bromoisoxazoline (Scheme 101) (78JCR(S)192). 

Vinyl bromide, available from Aldrich Chemical Company Inc., was used as received. 

Tetrahydrofuran, anhydrous, 99.9t (water content <0.006t) was purchased from Aldrich Chemical Company, Inc., and used as received. The vinyl bromide solution was prepared In a 500-mL, round-bottomed flask fitted with a glass stopper. The stoppered flask containing the tetrahydrofuran was chilled to about 5 C and weighed. The vinyl bromide, also chilled to about 5°C, was rapidly poured Into the tetrahydrofuran until the desired amount had been added. The flask was stoppered, the contents mixed by shaking, allowed to warm to about 16°C, and then added to the pressure-equalizing addition funnel. 

The polymerisation in sealed tubes of vinyl chloride and vinyl bromide, when exposed to sunlight, was reported in 1872 by Baumann. Further work on these polymerisations was carried out by Ostromislensky in Moscow and this was duly reported in 1912. ... 

Pentadiene has been prepared by the interaction of allyl bromide and vinyl bromide in the presence of magnesium and by the pyrolysis of 1,5-pentanediol diacetate or 4-penten-l-ol acetate. The present procedure is essentially that of Shoemaker and Boord with some modifications. ...
