Reaction Steps

A mixture of propane (6.0 ml/minute) and bromine (Br2 0.30 ml/hour) was passed into a reactor (glass tube ID 0.38″, heating zone length 4″), which was heated to 270° C. The effluent was analyzed by GC/MS. 100% bromine conversion with 88.9% 2-bromopropane selectivity and 11.1% 1-bromopropane selectivity were obtained.
