Abstract

Kinetics of bromination of anisole by N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) has been investigated in 50 vol.% aqueous acetic acid. The reaction is first order in NBS and zero order in anisole. The reaction is of the ion-dipole type and NBS itself is the brominating agent.

Abstract

Кинетика бромирования анизола N-бромосукцинимидом (NBS) была исследована в 50 объем.%-ой водной уксусной кислоте. Реакция имеет первый порядок по NBS и нулевой порядок по анизолу. Реакция относится к ион-дипольному типу и было показано, что сам NBS является бромирующим реагентом.
