Abstract: Access to 8-bromocamphor, a critical intermediate in the proposed synthesis of multidentate, camphor-derived ligands for the construction of novel metathesis catalysts, requires regioselective bromination of d-(+)-camphor. A computational study, using the Accelrys DFT code, DMol3, has provided new insights into the factors that appear to control the regioselective formation of 8-bromocamphor. [Copyright &y& Elsevier] |
