In 2019,Tetrahedron Letters included an article by Fu, Fang; Gurung, Laxman; Czaun, Miklos; Mathew, Thomas; Prakash, G. K. Surya. Synthetic Route of C6H4BrI. The article was titled 《ipso-Bromination/iodination of arylboronic acids: Poly(4-vinylpyridine)-Br2/I2 complexes as safe and efficient reagents》. The information in the text is summarized as follows:
Poly(4-vinyl pyridine) supported bromine/iodine complexes were prepared and probed for ipso-bromination/iodination of arylboronic acids ArB(OH)2 (Ar = 4-methylphenyl, 3-nitrophenyl, naphthalen-2-yl, etc.). These solid complexes with catalytic amount of additive are found to be safe and efficient reagent system for the ipso-bromination/iodination. The reaction occurs under mild conditions and tolerates various functional groups resulting in products ArX (X = Br, I) with high selectivity and yields. The results came from multiple reactions, including the reaction of 1-Bromo-4-iodobenzene(cas: 589-87-7Synthetic Route of C6H4BrI)
1-Bromo-4-iodobenzene(cas: 589-87-7) has been employed as reagent for in situ desilylation and coupling of silylated alkynes, as starting reagent in the total syntheses of ent-conduramine A and ent-7-deoxypancratistatin (alkaloids), as substrate in copper-free Sonogashira coupling in aqueous acetone in synthesis of β,β,dibromostyrenesSynthetic Route of C6H4BrI
