Monobromoborane–dimethyl sulfide (BH2Br–SMe2) is a highly regio- and chemoselective reagent useful for the brominative cleavage of the epoxy moiety into bromohydrins in the presence of alkenes, alkynes, ethers, acetals, ketals, and acetonides at 0°C, besides being an excellent hydroborating reagent. Several reactive functional groups, such as chloride, ketones, esters, nitriles, nitros, and thioethers, have been accommodated during such transformations. Although the reduction of acetophenone was completely suppressed at –25°C, 4-chlorobenzaldehyde still underwent 12–13% reduction of an aldehydic group.
单溴硼烷二甲基硫醚(BH2Br-SMe2)是一种具有高度区域性和化学选择性的试剂,除了是一种出色的氢硼酸化试剂外,还可在 0°C 温度下,在烯、炔、醚、乙缩醛、酮和丙酮的存在下,将环氧分子溴化裂解成溴水酐。在这种转化过程中,可以容纳多种活性官能团,如氯化物、酮、酯、腈、亚硝基和硫醚。虽然苯乙酮的还原反应在零下 25 摄氏度时被完全抑制,但 4-氯苯甲醛仍能还原 12-13% 的醛基。
