General description

Benzoyl bromide is a versatile reagent which causes the benzoylation of ethers.

Application

Benzoyl bromide was used to study the kinetics of solvolysis of benzoyl halides in microemulsions of sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate/isooctane/water at 25°C.

A simple and efficient method is developed for the chemoselective one-pot conversion of ethers (benzyl, TBDMS and acetal) to the corresponding benzoates by zinc triflate-catalyzed deprotection and benzoylation by benzoyl bromide. In the same reaction, methyl or p-methoxyphenyl glycosides are

A study was carried out on the solvolysis reactions of different benzoyl halides in microemulsions of water/NH4DEHP/isooctane, where NH4DEHP is ammonium bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate. Because of the low solubility of benzoyl halides in water, they are distributed between the continuous medium

Excitonic coupling, electronic coupling, and cooperative interactions in self-assembled lead halide perovskite nanocrystals were reported to give rise to a red-shifted collective emission peak with accelerated dynamics. Here we report that similar spectroscopic features could appear as a result of
