:4-(bromomethyl)heptane
Description:
4-(Bromomethyl)heptane is an organic compound characterized by a seven-carbon chain (heptane) with a bromomethyl group (-CH2Br) attached to the fourth carbon. This structure classifies it as a brominated alkane, which can exhibit unique reactivity due to the presence of the bromine atom. The compound is likely to be a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature, with a moderate boiling point typical of similar aliphatic compounds. Its molecular formula is C8H17Br, indicating it contains carbon, hydrogen, and bromine. The presence of the bromine atom makes it a potential candidate for nucleophilic substitution reactions, where the bromine can be replaced by various nucleophiles. Additionally, 4-(bromomethyl)heptane may participate in elimination reactions, leading to the formation of alkenes. Due to its bromine content, it may also be of interest in synthetic organic chemistry for the preparation of more complex molecules. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as brominated compounds can be hazardous.
