Description:2-Bromo-1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene, with the CAS number 1131-40-4, is an organic compound characterized by its bromine and methoxy substituents on a benzene ring. This compound features a bromine atom at the second position and three methoxy groups (-OCH3) at the 1, 3, and 5 positions of the aromatic ring, which significantly influence its chemical properties and reactivity. The presence of methoxy groups enhances the electron density of the benzene ring, making it more nucleophilic and reactive in electrophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, the bromine atom serves as a good leaving group, facilitating further chemical transformations. 2-Bromo-1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene is typically a solid at room temperature and may exhibit moderate solubility in organic solvents. Its unique structure makes it of interest in various fields, including organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry, where it may serve as a precursor for more complex molecules or as a potential bioactive compound. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as with many halogenated organic compounds.
