CAS 2051-99-2: 1-Bromo-4-(2-methylpropyl)benzene

Description: 1-Bromo-4-(2-methylpropyl)benzene, also known as p-bromo-α-isobutyl toluene, is an organic compound characterized by a bromine atom attached to the para position of a benzene ring, which is further substituted with a 2-methylpropyl group. This compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is typically insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ether and chloroform. It exhibits a moderate boiling point and density, reflecting its aromatic nature and the presence of the bulky 2-methylpropyl substituent. The bromine atom introduces reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in electrophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, the compound's structure suggests potential applications in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks, including skin and respiratory irritation. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from light is recommended to maintain its stability.
