4-Bromo-2,6-dimethylbenzenemethanamine

Description:

4-Bromo-2,6-dimethylbenzenemethanamine, also known as a substituted aniline, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a bromine atom and two methyl groups on a benzene ring, along with an amine functional group. The bromine substitution typically enhances the compound's reactivity, making it useful in various chemical syntheses. The dimethyl groups contribute to the steric hindrance around the amine, potentially influencing its reactivity and solubility. This compound is likely to be a solid at room temperature, with moderate polarity due to the amine group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. Its applications may include use as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or dyes. Safety data should be consulted, as halogenated compounds can exhibit toxicity and environmental persistence. Proper handling and disposal procedures are essential to mitigate any potential hazards associated with this chemical.
