Organocatalytic Enantioselective α-Bromination of Aldehydes with N-Bromosuccinimide.

Publicated to: Journal Of Organic Chemistry. 87 (12): 7968-7974 - 2022-06-17 87(12), DOI: 10.1021/acs.joc.2c00600

Abstract

Despite the wealth of existing organocatalytic, enantioselective transformations, the α-bromination of aldehydes remains a challenging reaction. The four examples reported to date require expensive, inconvenient brominating agents to achieve the desired products in excellent yields and enantioselectivities. The preferred brominating agent, N-bromosuccinimide (NBS), has been repeatedly discarded for these reactions because it results in low yields and relatively poor enantioselectivities. We describe a methodology that uses NBS and performs excellently with low catalyst loadings, short reaction times, and mild temperatures.

Impact and social visibility

From the perspective of influence or social adoption, and based on metrics associated with mentions and interactions provided by agencies specializing in calculating the so-called "Alternative or Social Metrics," we can highlight as of 2025-12-10:

  • The use, from an academic perspective evidenced by the Altmetric agency indicator referring to aggregations made by the personal bibliographic manager Mendeley, gives us a total of: 18.
  • The use of this contribution in bookmarks, code forks, additions to favorite lists for recurrent reading, as well as general views, indicates that someone is using the publication as a basis for their current work. This may be a notable indicator of future more formal and academic citations. This claim is supported by the result of the "Capture" indicator, which yields a total of: 18 (PlumX).

With a more dissemination-oriented intent and targeting more general audiences, we can observe other more global scores such as:

  • The Total Score from Altmetric: 5.
  • The number of mentions on the social network X (formerly Twitter): 7 (Altmetric).

It is essential to present evidence supporting full alignment with institutional principles and guidelines on Open Science and the Conservation and Dissemination of Intellectual Heritage. A clear example of this is:

  • The work has been submitted to a journal whose editorial policy allows open Open Access publication.
