- -4–Br. The next step is a deprotonation assisted by the released Br3Al–OAc species. This allows the formation of the AcO–AlBr2 salt via TS3–Br and the trans intermediate I-5–Br, which contains a Br–I(Ph)–O–naphthyl bond of 2.14 Å length. The last step is the bromination of I-5–Br by isomerization to
