Propanoic acid, 3-bromo-2-methyl-, methyl ester

Description:
Propanoic acid, 3-bromo-2-methyl-, methyl ester, also known by its CAS number 20609-71-6, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group. This compound features a propanoic acid backbone with a bromine atom and a methyl group substituent at the 3rd and 2nd carbon positions, respectively. As an ester, it is typically formed through the reaction of propanoic acid with methanol, resulting in a compound that is generally less polar than its acid counterpart. This structure contributes to its unique chemical properties, including moderate solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water. The presence of the bromine atom can influence its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions. Additionally, the compound may exhibit biological activity, which could be of interest in pharmaceutical applications. Overall, its characteristics make it a valuable compound in organic synthesis and potentially in agrochemical formulations.

  • Propanoic acid, 3-bromo-2-methyl-, methyl ester

    CAS:
    <p>3-Bromo-2-methylpropanoic acid is a colorimetric substrate that is used in the screening of enzymes with propionate as a cofactor. This substrate has been found to be selective for esterases, and can be used as an alternative to octanoate for enzymatic studies. The 3-bromo-2-methylpropanoic acid esters are also hydrophobic and have higher melting points than their corresponding acids, making them more suitable for thermophilic organisms. <br>The 3-bromo-2-methylpropanoic acid esters are chiral compounds that can be synthesized in two forms: (R)-3-bromo-2-methylpropanoic acid methyl ester and (S)-3-bromo-2-methylpropanoic acid methyl ester. The enantiomers of these compounds exhibit different biological activity. For example, the (S)-enantiomer</p>
