Abstract
The lower homologues of bromoacetylene, from 1-bromopropyne to 1-bromo-1-hexyne, have been prepared in excellent yield by stirring the alkyne (in the cases of 1-propyne and 1-butyne a dilute solution in high-boiling petroleum ether) with a very concentrated aqueous solution of potassium hypobromite and potassium hydroxide.Keywords
