Abstract

An efficient protocol for the synthesis of vicinal bromohydrins and dibromides from olefins is presented. Various olefins are regio-and stereoselectively hydroxybrominated and dibrominated with anti fashion, following Markonikov's rule, using eco-friendly, non-toxic, and stable reagents such as NH4Br and oxone® in CH3CN/H2O (1: 1) and CH3CN without employing catalyst in moderate to excellent yields. Bromohydrins are formed ...
