Synthesis of Tri –Bromoaniline: A Novel Green Approach

Abstract Bromination is one of the most important organic reactions and involves the use of bromine water. Bromine water or bromine in glacial acetic acid is highly toxic. This reaction is present in most university syllabi, at undergraduate level. And therefore used extensively by the students. The aim of this study was to prepare tri-bromoaniline using a green reagent which develops sustainable chemistry. The harmful products formed in the conventional method of preparation, are not obtained in this reaction.
Bromination of aniline is carried out using a green brominating reagent tetra-butyl ammonium bromide (TBATB) in water. Therefore, a greener reaction was introduced using TBATB in order to synthesize tri-bromoaniline which has varied applications.
Keywords Green Chemistry, bromination, TBATB.
