Reactions of Bromine with Diphenylethylenes: an Introduction to Electrophilic Substitution
Ronald M. Jarret, Jamie New, and Kalliopi Karaliolios
Department of Chemistry, College of the Holy Cross, Worcester, Massachusetts 01610
Cover
January 1997
Vol. 74 No. 1
p. 109
Abstract
Pooling the results obtained from the reaction between bromine and the cis and trans isomers of 1,2-diphenylethylenes allows students to discover the mechanism of anti addition which is common to most situations. Expansion of this experiment to include 1,1-diphenylethylene allows students the opportunity to discover the electrophilic substitution reaction. This serves as an excellent springboard for follow-up experiments on, and discussion of, electrophilic aromatic substitution.
