CAS 1119-64-8: 1-Bromo-1-hexyne

Description:1-Bromo-1-hexyne is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a bromine atom and a terminal alkyne functional group. It has a linear carbon chain consisting of six carbon atoms, with a triple bond between the first and second carbon atoms, making it a member of the alkyne family. The presence of the bromine atom at the first carbon contributes to its reactivity, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as nucleophilic substitutions and coupling reactions. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and has a relatively low boiling point compared to alkanes of similar molecular weight due to the presence of the triple bond. Its molecular formula is C6H9Br, and it is often used in organic synthesis as an intermediate for the preparation of more complex molecules. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may be harmful if inhaled or absorbed through the skin.
