Phosphorus tribromide → (3-Bromoprop-1-yn-1-yl)benzene

Temperature

40 °C

Phosphorous tribromide (2.62 mL, 27.6 mmol) was added to a solution of 3-phenyl-2-propyn-1-ol (10.0 g, 76 mmol) and pyridine (0.14 mL, 1.77 mmol) in diethyl ether (22 mL) at a rate to maintain reflux. After addition, the mixture was heated at 40° C. for 2 h. The mixture was cooled and poured onto ice. The organic layer was separated and diluted with diethyl ether (100 mL), washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate (2×50 mL) and saturated sodium chloride (50 mL). The organic layer was dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo to afford 1-phenyl-3-bromo-1-propyn (13.4 g, 90%).
