Ethyl 4-bromo-3-ethoxybut-2-enoate

Description:
Ethyl 4-bromo-3-ethoxybut-2-enoate is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes a bromine atom, an ethoxy group, and an ester functional group. This compound features a double bond in its butenoate backbone, contributing to its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis. The presence of the bromine atom enhances its electrophilic character, making it useful in various substitution reactions. Ethyl 4-bromo-3-ethoxybut-2-enoate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents, such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic ethyl and ethoxy groups. This compound is often utilized in the synthesis of more complex organic molecules and can serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. As with many brominated compounds, it is important to handle it with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns associated with halogenated organic substances.
