Abstract
Treatment of 3-oxetanol with carbon tetrabromide (CBr4) and triphenylphosphine (PPh3) under mild condition provides an efficient route for synthesis of 3-bromo-1,2-propanediol. The experimental results showed that an unexpected ring-opening reaction was selectively achieved under the routine bromination reaction condition.
