Acetyl chloride, (4-bromophenoxy)-

Description:
Acetyl chloride, (4-bromophenoxy)-, with the CAS number 16738-06-0, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both an acetyl chloride functional group and a 4-bromophenoxy moiety. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, indicative of its reactivity. It is known for its role as an acylating agent in organic synthesis, particularly in the formation of esters and amides. The presence of the bromine atom in the 4-position of the phenoxy group can influence the compound's reactivity and solubility, often enhancing electrophilic substitution reactions. Acetyl chloride, (4-bromophenoxy)- is sensitive to moisture and can hydrolyze to produce hydrochloric acid and the corresponding phenol, making it necessary to handle it under anhydrous conditions. Safety precautions are essential when working with this compound due to its corrosive nature and potential to cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system.
