An improved and sustainable approach for the synthesis of α,β-dibromo ketones using ceric ammonium nitrate and ammonium bromide

A simple and environmentally benign procedure for the bromination of substituted α,β-unsaturated ketones in good yield has been described using ammonium bromide as a brominating agent and ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) as a single-electron oxidant to afford α,β-dibromoketones. The reaction involves C-...
