9-(Bromomethyl)anthracene

Description:

9-(Bromomethyl)anthracene is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which consists of an anthracene backbone with a bromomethyl group attached at the 9-position. This compound typically appears as a solid, often exhibiting a crystalline form. It is known for its reactivity due to the presence of the bromomethyl group, which can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and cross-coupling reactions. The compound is generally soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and chloroform but has limited solubility in water. Its applications are primarily found in organic synthesis and materials science, particularly in the development of organic semiconductors and fluorescent materials. Additionally, 9-(Bromomethyl)anthracene can serve as a useful intermediate in the synthesis of more complex organic molecules. As with many brominated compounds, it is important to handle it with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns associated with brominated organic compounds. Proper safety measures should be observed when working with this substance in a laboratory setting.

9-(Bromomethyl)anthracene is a molecule that acts as an inhibitor of RNA synthesis. It binds to the ribosomes of cells, which are responsible for synthesizing proteins from amino acids and transferring them to other parts of the cell. The compound can inhibit protein synthesis by binding to the rRNA in the ribosome, preventing amino acids from joining together. 9-(Bromomethyl)anthracene has been shown to block the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between two fluorophores, and it has also been shown to have antiproliferative activity against human colon cancer cells.
