64. Ambient light means no additional light irritation in a well-illuminated lab setting. Specifically, the reactions were conducted in a hood with a 30 W overhead fluorescence tube (ca. 1 m overhead).

66. Bromination via a bromium ion is the major pathway with electron-rich arenes, e.g., para-brominated adduct was obtained in 85% yield with anisole. In this case, the reaction in the dark gave comparable results, which indicates this is not a light-promoted process. For previous examples, see: Y. L. Chow, D.-C. Zhao, C. I. Johansson, Can. J.
