Abstract
The reaction of N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) with olefins or aromatic hydrocarbons has been used for the substitution of bromine for hydrogen at a carbon atom attached to an unsaturated group. These reactions, frequently designated as "allylic brominations," are often catalyzed by peroxides or ultraviolet light and have been formulated as involving allyl-type free radicals stabilized by the contribution of resonance forms involving the double bond or aromatic system.
