The reaction of 2,6-dimethyl-4-methoxybenzyl alcohols, ethyl ethers, and acetates, possessing electrondonating and -withdrawing groups at the benzylic position, with bromine water was studied at different temperatures.The reaction was strongly affected by the electronegativity of a benzyl substituent to afford bromination products of aromatic nuclei and 2,4-dibromo-3,5-dimethylmethoxybenzene along with 2,4,6-tribromo derivatives formed by the cleavage of C-C bond.
