Abstract

A comparative evaluation was made on the syntheses of vicinal halohydrins, halo methyl ethers, and halo acetates from olefins using 2:1 Br-/BrO3- and I-/IO3- reagents. In many cases both reagents afforded products selectively in high yields. The highest halogen atom efficiencies attained were 97% and 93% for Br-/BrO3- and I-/IO3-, respectively. Of the two reagents, I-/IO3- was established to be the preferred reagent for vicinal functionalization of linear alkenes and also for halo acetate preparation. However, only Br-/BrO3- was effective for vicinal functionalization of trans-stilbene and chalcones.
