A novel method demonstrates effective dibromination in unsaturated compounds, suggesting a safer alternative to traditional halogenation methods.

The study aims to develop a simple and efficient method for the 1,2-dibromination of various unsaturated compounds.
Utilized tetrabromomethane as a bromine source
Employed tert-butyl hydroperoxide as a radical initiator
Conducted reactions under mild conditions without metal catalysts
Achieved transformation of multiple unsaturated compounds into dibrominated products
The method yielded anti-selective 1,2-dibrominated products
Demonstrated good yields across various unsaturated compounds
Supported exclusive anti-diastereoselectivity
