Halogenation of an aromatic compound is one of the most widely employed reaction in medicinal chemistry. Polyhalogenation of aromatic compounds works well when the aromatic compound contains a strong electron-donating substituent such as an amine or alcohol…
Previous reports from our research group have shown that light-activated organic dyes can be used as catalysts to aid in the electrophilic halogenation of aromatic compounds. These halogenated aromatics can then be used as intermediates to install more complex functionality…
Halogenation of aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds is one of the most widely employed reactions in medicinal chemistry to synthesize biologically active compounds…
