Abstract

A new method for the preparation of α-bromoketones from olefins using bromide/bromate couple as a nonhazardous brominating agent has been developed. Several α- bromoketones were successfully prepared from a variety of olefins by this method. This procedure is an alternative to conventional molecular bromine.
