A new simple and efficient one pot transformation of various aliphatic carbonyl compounds to the corresponding dibromoalkenes is described. A wide range of hydrazones of aldehydes and ketones. prepared in situ, were easily converted into dibromoalkenes by treatment with carbon tetrabromide in the presence of CuCl. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions to give the target products in good to high yields.
