Cl3CCN/PPh3 and CBr4/PPh3: Two efficient reagent systems for the preparation of N-heteroaromatic halides
Cl3CCN/PPh3 and CBr4/PPh3 are two highly reactive reagent systems for the conversion of N-heteroaromatic hydroxy compounds into N-heteroaromatic chlorides or bromides in moderate to excellent yields under mild and acid-free conditions.
Application of phosphonium salts to the reactions of various kinds of amides
The phosphonium salts 1 and 2 prepared from triphenylphosphine and N-halogenosuccinimide proved to be applicable to the conversion of amide compounds. Especially, halogenation of electron-deficient heteroaromatic alcohols with these reagents seems to be a convenient method compared to the halogenation with phosphorus oxyhalides.
