A debrominationreaction to synthesize α‐mono‐ and α,α‐dibromomethylketones with high selectivity from α,α,α‐tribromomethylketones by the controlling of H2OHBr reductive conditions was developed.
An electrochemical oxydihalogenation of alkynes has been developed for the first time. Using this sustainable protocol, a variety of α,α-dihaloketones can be prepared with readily available CHCl3, CH2Cl2, ClCH2CH2Cl, and CH2Br2 as the halogen source under electrochemical conditions at room temperature.

In nature, halogenation promotes the biological activity of secondary metabolites, especially geminal dihalogenation. Related natural molecules have been studied for decades. In recent years, their diversified vital activities have been explored for treating various diseases, which call for efficient and divergent synthetic strategies to facilitate drug discovery. Here we report a catalyst-free oxidative
Amino-bridged gel polymer P1 was discovered to catalyzealkyne halo-functionalization in excellent yields, regioselectivity, functional group compatibility, and recyclability. We have observed that both aromatic and aliphatic alkynes can be converted to α,α-dihalogenated ketones in the presence of polymer P1 under metal-free conditions at room temperature within a short reaction time.
