4-Bromophenylacetic acid may be prepared by the addition of a bromine atom to phenylacetic acid through electrophilic aromatic substitution.It was first prepared in the laboratory by treatment of phenylacetic acid with bromine and mercuric oxide; a mixture of the 2- and 4- isomers is made, and the 4- isomer is isolated by fractional crystallization.

Phenylboronic acid or benzeneboronic acid, abbreviated as PhB(OH) 2 where Ph is the phenyl group C 6 H 5 - and B(OH) 2 is a boronic acid containing a phenyl substituent and two hydroxyl groups attached to boron. Phenylboronic acid is a white powder and is commonly used in organic synthesis.
This reagent can be used, e.g. in the reaction with carbon dioxide to prepare benzoic acid. [4] Other methods involve palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions , such as the Suzuki reaction . Bromobenzene is used as a precursor in the manufacture of phencyclidine .
4-Formylphenyl boronic acid crystallizes in colorless needles [1] or is obtained as an odorless, whitish powder, which dissolves little in cold but better in hot water. The compound is quite stable [3] and readily forms dimers and cyclic trimeric anhydrides, which complicate purification and tend to protodeboronize, a secondary reaction that occurs frequently in the Suzuki coupling, with ...
The benzoyl functional group.. In organic chemistry, benzoyl (/ ˈ b ɛ n z oʊ ɪ l /, BENZ-oh-il) [1] is the functional group with the formula −COC 6 H 5 and structure −C(=O)−C 6 H 5. [2] [3] It can be viewed as benzaldehyde missing one hydrogen.
It is also prepared commercially by ketonization of benzoic acid and propionic acid over calcium acetate and alumina at 450–550 °C: [1] C 6 H 5 CO 2 H + CH 3 CH 2 CO 2 H → C 6 H 5 C(O)CH 2 CH 3 + CO 2 + H 2 O. Ludwig Claisen discovered that α-methoxystyrene forms this compound when heated for an hour at 300 °C (65% yield). [2] [3]
4-Bromothiophenol can be synthesized via the reduction of 4-bromo-benzenesulfonyl chloride by red phosphorus and iodine in an acidic solution. [3] Hydrogenation of 4,4'-dibromodiphenyl disulfide also produces 4-bromothiophenol.
