Abstract
The kinetics of bromination of phenols with molecular bromine in acetic acid have been studied. The overall order was found to depend on the concentrations of the reactants: three at higher concentrations and two at low concentration region. Individual orders were found to be one in each reactant. Activation parameters for the bromination of phenols were calculated. The order of reactivity is in the order of o-cresol > phenol > m-chlorophenol > o-chlorophenol > o-bromophenol > p-chlorophenol > salicylic acid > vanilline.
