“…Moreover, aryl bromides have been used as classical precursors to organolithium and Grignard reagents as well as in benzyne generation and nucleophilic aromatic substitution [10,11]. The most common synthetic method for preparing aryl bromides is electrophilic aromatic bromination, which continues to be an area of focus in synthetic chemistry because aryl bromides are very useful intermediates in the production of drugs, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, pigments, photographic materials, and various functional natural products [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37]. This makes the development of regioselective electrophilic aromatic brominations a high priority.…”
