Abstract
(±)-iso-Amarine is a potent organocatalyst at 1 mol % loading for both the bromoacetoxylation of alkenes with added acetic acid and bromolactonisation of unsaturated carboxylic acids with stoichiometric NBS as the electrophilic bromine source. A simple bromoamidine with an N–Br bond has been characterised crystallographically for the first time. Asymmetric induction in the bromination reactions with enantiopure amidines was zero.
