Help with mechanism of bromination
Can anyone help me with a mechanism of bromination of 5,8-dimethoxyquinoline N-oxide with POBr3. Normally nucleophilic brominations proceed to
position 2 or 4 of quinoline but there is described 3-bromo-5,8-dimethoxyquinoline as a product. Does it mean that the brominating agent is an
electrophile? Can POBr3 reagent serve as a donor of electrophilic bromine?
The article can be found here, supporting info with experimental procedure is attached:
