Abstract

The reaction of dibromine with the heterocycles I-IV gives corresponding 3,5-dibromo derivatives, while the less selective reactions with dichlorine afforded 3,5-dichloro derivative XII only in the case of 4H-thiopyran IV and trichloro derivative of the probable formula XIII in the case of 1,4-dihydropyridine II. Dichloro derivative IX was obtained on reaction of phosphorus pentachloride with substrate I. Nitration of compounds I-IV gives 3,5-dinitroderivatives XV-XVIII, but mononitro derivatives XIX and XX were also obtained. Iodination of compounds II-IV with di-iodine was unsuccessful.
