In a typical setup a stoichiometric amount of ''N''-bromosuccinimide solution and a small quantity of initiator are added to a solution of the substrate in CCl<sub>4</sub>, and the reaction mixture is stirred and heated to the boiling point. Initiation of the reaction is indicated by more vigorous boiling; sometimes the heat source may need to be removed. Once all ''N''-bromosuccinimide (which is denser than the solvent) has been converted to [[succinimide]] (which floats on top) the reaction has finished. |

The Wohl–Ziegler reaction[1][2] is a chemical reaction that involves the allylic or benzylic bromination of hydrocarbons using an N-bromoimide and a radical initiator.[3]
Best yields are achieved with N-bromosuccinimide in carbon tetrachloride solvent. Several reviews have been published.[4][5]
In a typical setup a stoichiometric amount of N-bromosuccinimide solution and a small quantity of initiator are added to a solution of the substrate in CCl4, and the reaction mixture is stirred and heated to the boiling point. Initiation of the reaction is indicated by more vigorous boiling; sometimes the heat source may need to be removed. Once all N-bromosuccinimide (which is denser than the solvent) has been converted to succinimide (which floats on top) the reaction has finished.
