A convenient, rapid H2SO4-promoted regioselective monobromination reaction with N-bromosuccinimide was developed. The desired para-monobrominated or ortho-monobrominated products of phenol derivatives were obtained in good to excellent yields with high selectivity. Regioselective chlorination and iodination were also achieved in the presence of H2SO4 using N-chlorosuccinimide and N-iodosuccinimide, respectively.

The regioselective mono-bromination of phenols has been successfully developed with KBr and ZnAl–BrO3?–layered double hydroxides (abbreviated as ZnAl–BrO3?–LDHs) as brominating reagents. The para site is much favorable and the ortho site takes the priority if para site is occupied. This reaction featured with excellent regioselectivity, cheap brominating reagents, mild reaction condition, high atom economy, broad substrate scope, and provided an efficient method to synthesize bromophenols.

In this work, an unexpected promoting effect of by-product thioether was observed, leading to a mild and regioselective bromination of phenols with TMSBr. This method can tolerate a series of functional groups such as the reactive methoxyl, amide, fluoro, chloro, bromo, aldehyde, ketone and ester groups, and has the potential to recycle the by-product thioether and isolate the desired product under column chromatography-free conditions. Mechanism studies revealed that O–H···S hydrogen bond may be formed between phenol and by-product thioether. Possibly owing to the steric hindrance effect from by-product thioether, the electrophilic bromination at para-position of phenols is much favorable.
