Description:1,11-Dibromoundecane is a linear alkane with the molecular formula C11H22Br2, characterized by the presence of two bromine atoms attached to the first and eleventh carbon atoms of the undecane chain. This compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is typically insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Its structure contributes to its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions due to the presence of the bromine atoms, which can be replaced by other nucleophiles. 1,11-Dibromoundecane is used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various chemical compounds. It has a relatively high boiling point compared to non-brominated alkanes of similar chain length, reflecting the influence of the bromine substituents on intermolecular forces. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks through inhalation or skin contact, and proper storage conditions are essential to maintain its stability.
