3-Bromobenzenemethanol

Description:

3-Bromobenzenemethanol, also known as meta-bromobenzyl alcohol, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a bromine atom and a hydroxymethyl group attached to a benzene ring. Its molecular structure consists of a benzene ring with a bromine substituent at the meta position relative to the hydroxymethyl group. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits limited solubility in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the benzene ring. 3-Bromobenzenemethanol can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and reductions, making it useful in organic synthesis. Additionally, it may exhibit biological activity, which can be of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks, including skin and eye irritation. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from incompatible substances is recommended to maintain its stability.

3-Bromobenzyl alcohol (3BA) is a potent inhibitor of farnesyl diphosphate synthase, which is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of dimethylallyl diphosphate and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolic acid to farnesyl diphosphate. It has been shown to be effective in the treatment of cancer. 3BA blocks the synthesis of farnesyl diphosphate and protein geranylgeranylation. It also inhibits tumor growth by inducing apoptosis. The efficacy of 3BA is limited by its toxicity at high concentrations. 3BA has also been found to inhibit nitrous oxide production in mice and rats.
