Participants

Reactant 2

HCID 8033Di-tert-butyl peroxide

HCID 3340691-Bromo-2-(2-bromoethyl)benzene

Product 1

HCID 7667beta-Bromostyrene

Conditions

Temperature: 360 °C

Procedure

2 g of di-tert-butyl peroxide were dissolved in 100 g of β-bromoethyl bromobenzene and fed into the reactor described in Example 1 at a rate of 70 g/h together with superheated steam (20 g/h). The temperature of the reaction was maintained at 360°C. The products yielded bromostyrene at a conversion of 90%.
