The enol carbon or ∝-carbon nucleophile attacks at molecular bromine in the acid-catalyzed α-bromination of a ketone
Treatment of ketones with bromine in the presence of acid will results in formation of a new C-Br bond at the alpha position. The purpose of the acid is to catalysed formation of the enol from ketone , which is active nucleophile in the reaction. This reaction is called haloform reaction which is used to identify the methyl substituted ketone in the presence of aldehyde.
