A divanadium-substituted phosphotungstate TBA(4)[γ-HPV(2)W(10)O(40)] (TBA = tetra-n-butylammonium) could act as an effective homogeneous catalyst for the H(2)O(2)-based oxidative bromination.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D010084	Oxidation-Reduction	A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471).	Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D010772	Phosphotungstic Acid	Tungsten hydroxide oxide phosphate. A white or slightly yellowish-green, slightly efflorescent crystal or crystalline powder. It is used as a reagent for alkaloids and many other nitrogen bases, for phenols, albumin, peptone, amino acids, uric acid, urea, blood, and carbohydrates. (From Merck Index, 11th ed)	Acid, Phosphotungstic
D002384	Catalysis	The facilitation of a chemical reaction by material (catalyst) that is not consumed by the reaction.	Catalyses
D006841	Hydrocarbons, Aromatic	Organic compounds containing carbon and hydrogen in the form of an unsaturated, usually hexagonal ring structure. The compounds can be single ring, or double, triple, or multiple fused rings.	Aromatic Hydrocarbon,Aromatic Hydrocarbons,Hydrocarbon, Aromatic
D006842	Hydrocarbons, Brominated	Hydrocarbon compounds with one or more HYDROGEN atoms substituted with BROMINE.	Brominated Hydrocarbons
D006861	Hydrogen Peroxide	A strong oxidizing agent used in aqueous solution as a ripening agent, bleach, and topical anti-infective. It is relatively unstable and solutions deteriorate over time unless stabilized by the addition of acetanilide or similar organic materials.
