Highly Efficient and Practical Oxidative Bromination of Electron-Rich Arenes Using S-Methyl Methanethiosulfonate as the Oxidant
These investigations were supported by Jiangxi Tianyu Chemical Co. Ltd.
Abstract
An efficient and practical method for the bromination of electron-rich arenes and heteroarenes was developed by using S-methyl methanethiosulfonate as the oxidant. All the bromine atoms were basically transferred to the brominated products, demonstrating the exceptional atom economy and practicality of the proposed protocol. The method reduces the amount of bromine required for this reaction system and obtains products in moderate to good yields.

- 19 Typical Procedure of thioanisole 1a Thioanisole (1a, 62 mg, 0.5 mmol), Br2 (44 mg, 0.275 mmol, 0.55 equiv), MMTS (1.2 mg, 0.01 mmol, 0.2equiv), and CH2Cl2 (1.5 mL) were added into a tube. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6 h. Then, the solvent was removed. The brominated product 2b was isolated after purification by column chromatography on silica gel (hexane/EtOAc = 10:1); yield 97.44 mg, 0.48 mmol, 96%.
