Regioselective halogenation (chlorination, bromination, iodination) of several ergolines to the corresponding 2-halo derivatives was performed in moderate to good yields by potential controlled electrolysis at platinum in acetonitrile in the presence of tetrabutylammonium halide and lithium perchlorate. Alternatively, ergolines underwent a facile iodination in excellent yields by exposure to an anodically oxidized solution of iodine in acetonitrile.
