POLYBROMO AROMATIC COMPOUNDS. I. SYNTHESIS OF SOME DERIVATIVES CONTAINING A PENTABROMOPHENYL RESIDUE

The synthesis of pentabromobenzyl bromide has been carried out, and its nucleophilic substitution reactions with alcohols, amines, sodium acetate, and silver nitrite have been studied.The C-Br bond in the bromomethyl group of pentabromobenzyl bromide readily undergoes homolysis, resulting in reductive dehalogenation.
