Abstract
Bromination of different aromatic substrates have been described using 2,4,4,6‐tetrabromo‐2,5‐cyclohexadienone in conjunction with microwave and ultraviolet radiations. Important features of the work include high regioselectivity obtained in very short to moderate reaction time, atom economy, and recyclability of the reagent.
