Communication 7. Mechanism of the formation of quinobromides

  • Published:
Bulletin of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Division of chemical science Aims and scope

Summary

  1. 1.

    A mechanism for the formation of quinobromides is proposed.

  2. 2.

    For the formation of quinobromides the presence of proton-accepting substances is necessary.

  3. 3.

    In the bromination of 2,6-di-t-butyl-p-cresol (ionol) with free bromine in dry nonpolar solvents at 20°, 4-(bromomethyl)-2,6-di-t-butylphenol, which contains bromine in the side chain, is formed preferentially.
