Abstract

An efficient and rapid method has been developed for the synthesis of vicinal bromo-/iodohydrins and β-bromo-/β-iodoethers from alkenes and N-bromo-/N-iodosuccinimides employing ammonium acetate (NH4OAc) in water or alcohols. The reaction takes place at room temperature within short reaction times and with excellent regioselectivity.
