The a-bromination of carbonyl compounds by Br₂ in acetic acid is limited to aldehydes and ketones because acids, esters,
and amides don't enolize to a sufficient extent. Carboxylic acids, however, can be a-brominated by first converting the
carboxylic acid to an acid bromide by treatment with PBr3. Following enolization of the acid bromide, Br₂ reacts in an α-
substitution reaction. Hydrolysis of the acid bromide completes the reaction.
