1,2-Dibromobenzenes are highly valuable precursors for various organic transformations, in particular, reactions based on the intermediate formation of benzynes. This report describes short sequences for the synthesis of various derivatives based on regioselective bromination, ortho-metalation, and halogen/metal permutations. 1,2-Dibromo-3-iodobenzene (2f), 1,2-dibromo-4- iodobenzene (4c), and 2,3-dibromo-1,4-diiodobenzene (5e) act as intermediates in these syntheses. Bromo-iodoarenes have been synthesized by short and regioselective bromination or iodination sequences that combine ortho-metalation, halo-desilylation, diazotation, or bromination reactions of anilines. These polyhalo derivatives were then used as key intermediates to access a wide range of functionalized 1,2-dibromobenzenes by chemoselective organometallic reactions. Copyright

Electrophilic bromination of the title compounds may be achieved using either bromine in oleum, or bromine and potassium bromate in a sulphuric-acetic acid mixture.Under the milder reaction conditions provided by the latter, 2-(p-nitrophenyl)-5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (2), the model compound used in this study, is mono- and di-brominated in the phenyl ring.In the first bromination step, all three monobromo-isomers are produced in appreciable amount.The orientation of the second bromination is controlled entirely by the first bromine and not by the oxadiazole substituent: this is confirmed by a separate study of the bromination of the three monobromo-compounds (3a-3c).
