2-Ethylhexyl bromide

Description:

2-Ethylhexyl bromide, with the CAS number 18908-66-2, is an organic compound classified as an alkyl bromide. It features a branched-chain structure, consisting of an ethyl group attached to a hexyl chain, with a bromine atom substituting one of the hydrogen atoms. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and has a characteristic odor. It is moderately soluble in organic solvents but has low solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. 2-Ethylhexyl bromide is primarily used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of surfactants, plasticizers, and other chemical compounds. It is important to handle this substance with care, as it can be harmful if inhaled or absorbed through the skin, and it may pose environmental hazards. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation, are essential when working with this chemical.
