Abstract
Bromination of 3-(methylfur-2-yl)- and 3-(methylfur-3-yl)-3-(diethoxyphosphoryl) acrylates with N-bromosuccinimide in carbon tetrachloride in the presence of azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as a source of radicals is studied. It was found that if at least one α-position of the furan ring is free, the first bromine atom enters exactly there, and only after that bromination of the methyl group takes place. If both α-positions are free, the bromine atom first enters the position with the most high electron density, then the remaining α-position, and only after that bromination of methyl group takes place. The reaction rates differ significantly, therefore, it is possible to isolate in the pure state the compounds containing one, two, and three bromine atoms.
