Introduction
Brominated coumarins have immense synthetic, biological and industrial importance due to their occurance in nature [1] and applications in pharmaceuticals. They are used for the synthesis of formyl [2] and aryl derivatives [3] and serve as important synthetic precursors of furocoumarins and dihydrofurocoumarins, which are widely used as photosensitizers and chemotherapeutic agents to combat skin diseases [4]. Halocoumarins also exhibit insecticidal and fungicidal properties [5]. A few methods have been documented for regioselective bromination of coumarins, which include CuBr2/Al2O3 in bromobenzene under reflux [5], Br2 in glacial AcOH [6], Br2/Al2O3 under microwave irradiation [7], NBS in CHCl3 [8], Et4N+Br− in the presence of hypervalent iodine reagents [9], and NBS in tetrabutylammonium bromide under molten salt conditions [10]. There is a recent report of the preparation of 3-bromocoumarins from acyclic precursors through bromination of a Wittig reagent with NBS followed by tandem Wittig reaction and cyclization [11]. Many of them involve high temperature, long reaction time, toxic, exotic and costly reagents, sometimes in excess to stoichiometric requirement, and organic solvents during and after the reactions. Thus, there is always an urgency to put ardent efforts towards the development of new methods for regioselective bromination of differently substituted coumarins under mild conditions with easily accessible reagents. Dioxane dibromide (DD) has been successfully used for selective α-bromination of substituted acetophenones by using dioxane as a solvent at room temperature [12], and for the selective synthesis of α-bromo and α,α-dibromoalkanones supported on silica gel under solvent-free conditions and microwave irradiation [13]. As a part of our endeavor to develop novel solvent-free protocols for important organic transformations, we have reported the efficient synthesis of vicinal anti-dibromides through highly diastereoselective electrophilic addition of bromine across various electron-deficient and electron-rich double bonds [14] using DD under solvent-free conditions. Two compounds of the present investigation (2a and 2g in Table 1, see below) were synthesized during the aforesaid study [14]. We have also accomplished DD-mediated solvent-free regioselective electrophilic ring bromination of aromatic compounds [15]. Encouraged by the aforesaid literature precedence we envisaged the development of a solvent-free protocol for regioselective bromination of substituted coumarins using DD as an easily accessible, economically viable reagent, and we report herein the results of our investigation.
Results and Discussion
When dioxane dibromide (DD, an orange solid compound, mp 61–62 °C, molecular formula C4H8O2Br2 containing 63.6% of bromine as determined iodometrically) was thoroughly mixed with the substrate in the absence of any solvent, kept at room temperature for the stipulated time and triturated with crushed ice, then, depending on the stoichiometric proportion of DD, the respective product was obtained as a filterable solid. This is delineated in Scheme 1 and the detailed results are summarized in Table 1.

aReactions were carried out with 5 mmol of substrate by using the duly weighed amount of DD as indicated by the molar equiv; byield refers to that of the pure product characterized spectroscopically; cproducts were characterized through the acetyl derivative.
When an unsubstituted coumarin (1a) was subjected to bromination with DD under solvent-free conditions, vicinally anti-dibromide 2a was obtained exclusively through electrophilic addition of bromine across the electron-deficient double bond of the conjugated δ-lactone moiety (Table 1, entry 1). This was evident from the dihedral angle between H–C3–C4 and C3–C4–H in 2a, which was calculated (from the Karplus equation) as 57.5° from the coupling constant (2.6 Hz) between C3–H and C4–H at δ 4.96 and δ 5.34. However, for the aromatic ring substituted with the electron-donating group at C7, the heterocyclic ring in 1b and 1c underwent selective monobromination with an equimolar amount of DD through vinylic substitution of C3–H. In the 1H NMR spectra of 2b and 2c, the signal around δ 6.00 was absent and one singlet around δ 8.00 appeared due to olefinic hydrogen at C4 having no partner to couple with. Thus the incorporation of bromine at C3 (Table 1, entries 2 and 4) was established. When 1b reacted with more than two equivalents of DD, the second bromine atom was incorporated in the carbocyclic ring at C8 through aromatic electrophilic substitution (Table 1, entry 3) to produce 2bb. The location of the second bromine atom in 2bb was also established conclusively from its 1H NMR spectrum in which only two doublets with coupling constants of 8.4 Hz appeared due to aromatic hydrogens (apart from the singlet at δ 8.07 due to olefinic-H at C4) at δ 7.13 and 7.43, representing two ortho protons, which were bound to be due to aromatic hydrogens at C6 and C5, respectively. Obviously C8 carried the second bromine atom in 2bb. In 1d, with an alkyl substituent at C4, vinylic bromination occurred at C3 (Table 1, entry 5). This was supported from 1H NMR data in which the singlet at δ 6.29 due to the hydrogen at C3 of 1d was absent in 2d indicating vinylic substitution. In the 13C NMR spectrum a signal appeared at δ 151.0 due to the quaternary C carrying the bromine atom. When C4 and C7 were both substituted with an alkyl group and electron-donating group, respectively, as in 1e and 1f, vinylic bromination occurred regioselectively to furnish 2e and 2f in high yield without further bromination at C6 and C8, when a stoichiometric amount of DD was used (Table 1, entries 6 and 7).
Interestingly, 7-(allyloxy)coumarin (1g) underwent chemoselective addition of bromine across the isolated double bond to form 2g leaving behind the conjugated endocyclic double bond unaffected, when a critically weighed amount of DD as per stoichiometric requirement was used (Table 1, entry 8). This was supported by the 1H NMR data of 2g in which the doublet for olefinic H at C3 appeared at δ 6.27 with J = 9.4 Hz and olefinic hydrogen at C4 appeared at δ 7.65 with J = 9.5 Hz, corresponding to the mutually cis-orientation of the two hydrogens across the C3–C4 olefinic linkage of the coumarin system. Three peaks in the ratio 1:2:1 as the molecular ion peaks in the mass spectrum also conclusively proved the presence of two bromine atoms in the product, which were due to electrophilic addition of bromine across the olefinic linkage without any vinylic substitution. 4-Methyl-7-(allyloxy)coumarin (1h) (Table 1, entry 9) underwent addition of bromine across the isolated double bond as well as vinyl substitution at C3, in contrast to our previous result (Table 1, entry 8). This indicated a strong influence of the alkyl substituent at C4 on the course of the reaction. The results for cinnamyloxy and propargyloxy-substituted 4-methylcoumarins (1i and 1j) were in accordance with the previous result (Table 1, entries 10 and 11).
It is important to note that the presence of an electron-donating group (–NH2) at C6, without an alkyl substituent at C4, lead to bromination of the carbocyclic ring bearing the amino group through aromatic electrophilic substitution instead of vinylic bromination, leaving the conjugated double bond intact (Table 1, entry 12). This was established by the presence of two doublets (J = 9.6 Hz) at δ 6.46 and δ 8.03 in 2k due to olefinic H’s at C3 and C4, respectively, indicating the cis-stereochemistry of the olefinic linkage of the α,β-unsaturated-δ-lactone moiety. Two other doublets (J = 9.0 Hz) at δ 6.95 and δ 7.15 appeared due to ortho-coupled aromatic hydrogens at C7 and C8, indicating incorporation of bromine at C5. In the presence of excess DD, 1k and 1l furnished 5,7-dibromo derivatives 2kk and 2l, respectively, through two successive electrophilic aromatic substitutions at the more activated carbocyclic aromatic ring without vinylic bromination, regardless of the presence or absence of the alkyl substituent at C4 (Table 1, entries 13 and 14). The appearance of only one singlet around δ 7.5 (due to aromatic-H at C8) in 2kk and 2l indicated the incorporation of two bromine atoms at C5 and C7, which were the more nucleophilic centers as both of them were ortho with respect to the electron-donating amino group.
From the aforesaid study, it is clear that the outcome of this dioxane dibromide mediated solvent-free bromination reaction depends critically on the electronic nature and location of the substituents. This was further corroborated from the fact that coumarins bearing electron-withdrawing substituents (1m and 1n) remained unaffected under the applied reaction conditions (Scheme 2).

The above-mentioned protocol avoids the use of molecular bromine [19], in halogenated or other toxic organic solvents [5,8,19], and any kind of inorganic support [5]. Thus, synthetically important 3-bromo-umbelliferone (2b) and its derivatives, used as precursors for the synthesis of sulfones with remarkable antituberculotic activity [20] or other biologically important molecules [20,21] can be accessed easily by this simple protocol. For example, 3,8-dibromo-7-hydroxycoumarin (2bb) has come out as the most promising inhibitor of casein kinase 2 [22]. In this protocol, excess use of toxic bromine can be avoided by using the requisite amount of solid brominating agent through accurate weighing. A stoichiometric amount of HBr is liberated, but this is less toxic than Br2 vapour. Therefore, this solvent-free protocol for the bromination of coumarins helps to minimize the involvement and dispersal of harmful chemicals in the environment. Moreover, DD under solvent-free conditions is a superior reagent for the bromination of coumarins in comparison to bromine in an organic solvent, as shown in Scheme 3. DD reacts with coumarins faster and more efficiently in the absence of solvent. Considerable amounts of unidentified byproducts were produced when bromine and DD were used in organic solvents. Therefore, the yield and purity of the product were depleted. The efficacy of the dioxane dibromide mediated solvent-free protocol has thus been clearly established in terms of reaction rate, yield and purity of the products as well as the ease of accessibility of the reagent along with procedural simplicity.

From the aforesaid study it is clear that differentially substituted coumarins undergo transformations involving vinylic bromination and/or ring bromination, which are critically dictated by the electronic nature and location of the substituent(s). A plausible mechanism has been proposed to rationalize the electronic and positional effects of the substituents on the course of the reaction (Figure 1). The ability of the substituents to stabilize the electron-deficient centers seems to play the most crucial role in determining the reactivity and orientation of the said reaction.

The orange colour of DD is believed to originate from a charge-transfer transition between dioxane and bromine [23]. It has been reported [24] that the Br–Br bond length in DD is 0.231 nm, whereas in the Br2 molecule, the Br–Br bond length is 0.228 nm. Thus, the Br–Br bond in DD is a little elongated and the bromine molecule is slightly polarized. It has also been suggested [24] that when bromine interacts with dioxane forming a dioxane dibromide complex, the electron density flows from the lone pair of nonbonding occupied orbitals of bromine to the unoccupied orbitals on the dioxane unit. Therefore, the attacking electrophile derived from DD is likely to be a slightly polarized neutral bromine molecule with enhanced electrophilicity. As proposed in Figure 1, the reaction may involve the initial formation of a cyclic bromonium ion and its subsequent conversion to the carbocationic intermediate, depending on its stabilization by alkyl substituents at C4 through an electron-donating inductive effect and hypercojugation, and/or by the substituents at C7 rendering an electron-donating mesomeric effect. The formation of the initial bromonium ion intermediate was ascertained by the highly antiselective addition of bromine across the electron-deficient olefinic bond of the unsubstituted coumarin (Table 1, entry 1). In other cases, the bromonium ion underwent ring opening such that the incipient positive charge at C4 was stabilized by an alkyl group present at C4, through an electron-donating inductive effect and hyperconjugation as well as the mesomeric effect of the electron-donating substituent at C7. After concomitant loss of highly acidic hydrogen from C3, the carbocationic intermediate was re-aromatized leading to vinylic substitution (Table 1, entries 2–7). It is interesting to note that the electron-rich isolated double bond underwent preferential addition of bromine, rather than vinylic substitution at C3, when there was no alkyl substituent at C4 (Table 1, entry 8). But when the C4 had an alkyl substituent, the isolated double bond underwent bromine addition along with vinylic substitution at C3, despite the use of 1 molar equivalent of DD (Table 1, entry 9). Thus, the importance of the alkyl substituent at C4 towards vinylic substitution was established. Hence, the electrophilic addition and vinylic bromination could occur at the same time by using 2 molar equivalents of DD (Table 1, entry 10). Acetylenic bonds, being more nucleophilic than olefinic bonds, underwent addition of bromine to vicinal dibromo-olefins along with vinylic substitution (Table 1, entry 11). Further bromination did not occur due to a less pronounced nucleophilicity of the brominated olefinic linkage in 2j.
The presence of an electron-donating substituent at C6 increased the electron density to the carbocyclic ring at the adjacent carbons. Moreover, the electron-donating substituent at C6 could not stabilize the Wheland intermediate (obtained by the electrophilic attack at C3) as efficiently as that at C7 through mesomeric delocalization. Rather, it was more capable of stabilizing the positive charge in the Wheland intermediate obtained after the electrophilic attack at C5, as shown in Figure 2. Thus, bromination at C5 and C7 occurred through aromatic electrophilic substitution of the carbocyclic ring rather than vinylic bromination (Table 1, entries 12–14) at the heterocyclic ring.
Figure 2: Mechanism for bromination of the carbocyclic ring.
Figure 2: Mechanism for bromination of the carbocyclic ring.
When C4 was substituted with an electron-withdrawing group, e.g., –CHO, the development of positive charge at that position was highly disfavored. Therefore, the reaction did not proceed and the starting material was recovered unchanged (Scheme 2). The electron-withdrawing substituents (e.g., –NO2) on the carbocyclic ring lowered its electron-density. Hence, the incipient positive charge at C4 could not be stabilized by mesomeric delocalization. Therefore, the reaction failed (Scheme 2) with electron-withdrawing substituents.
Conclusion
The present dioxane dibromide mediated solvent-free protocol provides a very simple, versatile and efficient bromination of differentially substituted coumarins. The most significant features of this methodology are (a) good accessibility of the reagent and its stability (stable for at least three to four months in a refrigerator); (b) a stoichiometric amount of reagent can be used by direct weighing, avoiding excess; (c) no evolution of hazardous bromine vapor during the reaction; (d) the total elimination of the use of toxic organic solvents; (e) a simple experimental procedure; (g) an easy work-up; (h) excellent selectivity in case of activated coumarins and (i) good control over the outcome of the reaction by varying the amount of reagent. The aforesaid protocol thus provides an improved procedure for the synthesis of useful bromocoumarins having important pharmaceutical, agricultural and other physicochemical properties.
