CAS 18263-25-7: 2-Bromohexadecanoic acid

Description: 2-Bromohexadecanoic acid is a long-chain fatty acid derivative characterized by the presence of a bromine atom at the second carbon position of the hexadecanoic acid backbone. This compound typically exhibits properties common to fatty acids, such as being a solid at room temperature due to its long hydrophobic carbon chain. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, reflecting its amphiphilic nature. The bromine substitution can influence its reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis and potentially in the development of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. The presence of the bromine atom can also affect the compound's biological activity, including its interactions with biological membranes and enzymes. Additionally, 2-bromohexadecanoic acid may be utilized in various applications, including surfactants and emulsifiers, due to its ability to modify surface properties. As with many halogenated compounds, safety precautions should be taken when handling it, as brominated compounds can pose environmental and health risks.
