Abstract
Abstract An efficient and mild one-pot procedure for geminal bromochlorination of α-diazo carbonyl compounds has been developed for the first time using tetrabutylammonium dichlorobromide (TBADCB) via metal carbenoids. This protocol was found to be highly selective and does not result in dichlorination or dibromination products. The reagent, TBADCB, is commercially available, easy to prepare and handle.
