Allylic bromination with nbs

Allylic bromination is a neat reaction where we put bromine on a molecule in a kind of specific spot we call the allylic position. That’s done with a reagent called NBS, or N-bromosuccinimide. And today I'm going to teach you everything you've ever wanted to know about allylic bromination with NBS why it's cool and why it's important in the synthesis of new iron 325 mg chemicals

The NBS-allylic bromination is a chemical reaction to convert organic compounds using N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) into allyl bromides. The allylic position is a unique place next to one of the carbon-carbon double bonds in a molecule. Through introducing a bromine atom at this position, we will be able to prepare new compounds which have the fascinating features.

Mechanism of Allylic Bromination with NBS

The allylic bromination of NBS proceeds through a number of different steps. NBS does so by reacting with a hydrogen atom from the alkene to produce a reactive intermediate, or Bromonium ion. This Bromonium ion attacks the double bond, introducing a bromine atom to the fersulfate allylic position. This is known as an electrophilic bromination since the bromine atom is seeking out areas of the molecule that are rich in electrons.
