Question

Bromination of furan in DMF at room temperature gives
a.mono substantion at 2 position
b.di-substitution at 2 and 5
c.di sub....at 2 and 4
d.mono at 3 position ​

Answer 1

Bromination of furan in DMF at room temperature gives 2‐bromofuran or mono substitution at 2 position . Thus , option (a) is correct .

• Bromination is the process of adding or introducing bromine ( Br$_{2}$ ) ( no other element other than it ) to a organic compound.
• The full form of DMF is Dimethylformamide . It is used as a solvent in chemical reactions .
