Description:2,5-Dibromo-p-xylene, with the CAS number 1074-24-4, is an organic compound belonging to the class of brominated aromatic hydrocarbons. It features a xylene backbone, specifically the para isomer, with two bromine substituents located at the 2 and 5 positions of the aromatic ring. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow solid at room temperature and is known for its moderate solubility in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water. The presence of bromine atoms enhances its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses and applications, including as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, 2,5-Dibromo-p-xylene exhibits properties such as stability under normal conditions, but it may undergo reactions such as electrophilic substitution or nucleophilic attack due to the electron-withdrawing nature of the bromine substituents. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as brominated compounds can pose environmental and health risks.
