Tribromoisocyanuric Acid (TBCA)

Recent Literature


The reaction of tribromoisocyanuric acid with alkenes in the presence of nucleophilic solvents (various alcohols, acetic acid, and H2O in acetone) led to the corresponding β-bromoethers, β-bromoacetates and bromohydrins in high regioselectivity and good yields.
