Lithium Monobromide
Lithium bromide (LiBr) may be employed as a catalyst in the following studies
• Transformation of (aromatic- and α,β-unsaturated) aldehydes to dithioacetals via solvent-free dithioacetalization. • Synthesis of olefins via condensation reaction of carbonyl compounds with active methylene compounds. • Green synthesis of β-amino alcohols. • Chemo- and regioselective bromination of aromatic compounds was carried out by employing LiBr/ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) reagent system (as a source of Br+ ion).
