Other examples of the transformation of OH to Br are illustrated
(brominating agent for alcohols, carboxylic acids, alkenes, and in eqs 7 and 8.6,7 Conversion of an alcohol to a dibromo derivative
ketones) has been reported (eq 9).8

active methylene protons can be brominated with thionyl bromide.
There is an example of dibromination of a methyl ketone (eq 10).8
