Abstract
The reaction between sodium trifluoromethanesulfinate, which was prepared from trifluoromethyl bromide, with bromine in aqueous solution resulted in the formation of trifluoromethanesulfonyl bromide (CF2SO2Br). CF3SO1Br reacted with alkenes and alkyne to give the corresponding adducts with the loss of SO2 in good yields, and with compounds containing active hydrogen to give brominated derivatives. A radical reaction mechanism was proposed and confirmed by EPR study.
