All 16 bromination products of phloroglucinol and its methyl ethers, as well as five bromoresorcinols and three of their dimethyl ethers, were synthesized and analyzed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Two or three equivalents of bromine convert phloroglucinol to di-and tribromophloroglucinol, 5-methoxyresorcinol to the tri-and 2,4-dibromo, 3,s-dimethoxyphenol to the tri-and 2,6-dibromo, and 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene to the dibromo compound. With one equivalent of bromine, 3,s-dimethoxyphenol reacts preferentially at C-2 while 5-methoxyresorcinol gives both monobromo isomers. Partial debromination with sodium sulfite yields successively 2,4-dibromo-and 2-bromo-5-methoxyresorcinol from the tribromo compound but fails with brominated 3,s-dimethoxyphenol. In the resorcinol series, C-2 is invariably the least reactive position.4,6-Dibromo-5-methoxyresorcinol and 2,4-dibromo-3,s-dimethoxyphenol are accessible by methylation of dibromophloroglucinol, obtained from 3,s-dibromo-2,4,6-trihydroxybenzoic acid by decarboxylation. In contrast to resorcinol and tribromoresorcinol, the partial bromination of phloroglucinol and debromination of tribromophloroglucinol are not selective. The 13cmr spectra of bromophloroglucinol methyl ethers show characteristic downfield shifts for methoxy groups orthogonal to the aromatic ring plane.Key words: bromophloroglucinols, synthesis, nmr, and debromination; bromo-5-methoxyresorcinols, synthesis, nmr, and debromination; bromo-3,s-dimethoxyphenols, synthesis and nmr. On a effectuC la synthtse des 16 produits de bromination du phloroglucinol et de ses Cthers mCthyliques ainsi que de cinq bromorCsorcinols et de trois de leurs Cthers dimCthyliques et on a pu effectuer une analyse de tous ces dCrivCs par spectroscopie en rksonance magnttique nuclCaire. Deux ou trois Cquivalents de brome transforment le phloroglucinol en di-et en tri-bromophloroglucinols, le mCthoxy-5 rtsorcinol en dCrivCs tribromo et dibromo-2,4, le dimCthoxy-3,s phCnol en dCrivCs tribromo et dibromo-2,6 et le trimCthoxy-1,3,5 benzkne en composC dibromC. Avec un Cquivalent de brome, le dimtthoxy-3,s phtnol rCagit prCf6rentiellement en C-2 alors que le mCthoxy-5 rCsorcinol foumit les deux isomkres monobromCs. Si on soumet le dCrivC tribromC i une dCbromation partielle i I'aide de sulfite de sodium, on obtient successivement le dibromo-2,4 et le bromo-2 mCthoxy-5 rCsorcinol; toutefois, on ne peut effectuer de dkbromation partielle sur le dimCthoxy-3,s phCnol bromC. Dans la sCrie du rCsorcinol, la position C-2 est toujours la moins reactive. Les dibromo-4.6 mCthoxy-5 rCsorcinol et dibromo-2,4 dimCthoxy-3,s phCnol sont accessibles par mCthylation du dibromophloroglucinoI qui est obtenu par dCcarboxylation de l'acide dibromo-3,s trihydroxy-2,4,6 benzoi'que. Par opposition avec ce qui est observC avec le rCsorcinol et le tribromorCsorcinol, la bromation partielle du phloroglucinol et la dCbromation du tribromophloroglucinol ne sont pas sClectives. Dans les spectres rmn du I3c des Cthers mCthyliques des bromophloroglucinols,...
