Abstract

A series of side chain mono and dibromo derivatives of mono and dimethyl heteroaromatic and aromatic compounds (1–17) were synthesized by one step solid phase N- bromosuccinimide (NBS) reaction without radical initiator by microwave irradiation. The benzylic mono and dibromo products were exclusively preferred except in the case of 6- methylpyridine amides (8 and 9) where nuclear and also side chain bromination resulted. ...
