N-Bromosuccinimide as a Regioselective Nuclear Monobrominating Reagent for Phenols and Naphthols

Abstract
A wide range of substituted phenols and naphthols were regioselectively monobrominated with N-bromosuccinimide, at para position in acetonitrile and at ortho position in carbon disulfide, under mild conditions in good yields. Methylphenols afforded only nuclear bromination products.
