“…Accordingly, the Ferrier photobromination mirrors the Wohl-Ziegler bromination of benzylic and allylic substrates across mechanistic and practical aspects. , The major limitation of these reactions, however, is their dependency on CCl 4 as a solvent. CCl 4 is a hepatotoxic and ozone-depleting substance which was banned from commercial production and sale under the 1994 Montreal Protocol . Unfortunately, while multiple sets of CCl 4 -free conditions have been sourced for the Wohl-Ziegler bromination, a single, versatile substitute compatible with the Ferrier photobromination has yet to be identified. − It can also be considered that commercial heat lamps, which inherently vary by their luminous flux (Φ v ) and emission wavelength (λ) ranges, introduce great concerns for reproducibility across studies.…”
