Description:2-Bromo-4-iodo-1-methylbenzene, also known as 1-methyl-2-bromo-4-iodobenzene, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a methyl group, a bromine atom, and an iodine atom attached to a benzene ring. This compound features a substituted aromatic structure, which contributes to its chemical reactivity and physical properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. The presence of halogen substituents (bromine and iodine) enhances its reactivity, making it useful in various organic synthesis applications, including cross-coupling reactions and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The compound is generally insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic nature. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as both bromine and iodine are hazardous. Proper storage and disposal methods are essential to minimize environmental impact and health risks.
