Abstract

CL CL tained by bromination of a 3-arylpropene or by abstracting a bromide ion from a 1, 2- dibromo-3-arylpropane. Two isomeric intermediates can be envisaged: a 3- arylpropylenebromonium ion and the (3-bromopropy1ene)-benzenium ion la (Scheme I). Not a great deal is known about benzenium ions bearing electron-withdrawing group^.^^^(3- Halopropy1ene) benzenium ions themselves were revealed primarily by our~ ork.~.~ ...
