2-Bromo-4,7-dimethylquinoline

Description:

2-Bromo-4,7-dimethylquinoline is an organic compound characterized by its quinoline structure, which consists of a fused benzene and pyridine ring. The presence of bromine at the 2-position and two methyl groups at the 4 and 7 positions contributes to its unique chemical properties. This compound typically appears as a yellow to brown solid and is sparingly soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and dichloromethane. Its molecular formula reflects the presence of bromine and additional methyl groups, influencing its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry. The bromine substituent can participate in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions, while the methyl groups can affect the compound's steric and electronic properties. 2-Bromo-4,7-dimethylquinoline may also exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in pharmaceutical research. As with many quinoline derivatives, it may serve as a scaffold for the development of new drugs or agrochemicals. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
