4-Methoxybenzyl bromide

Description:
4-Methoxybenzyl bromide, with the CAS number 2746-25-0, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and the presence of both a methoxy group and a bromine atom. It features a benzene ring substituted with a methoxy group (-OCH3) at the para position relative to a benzyl bromide moiety. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its reactivity due to the presence of the bromine atom, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. The methoxy group enhances the electron density of the aromatic ring, influencing its reactivity and making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, 4-Methoxybenzyl bromide is soluble in organic solvents, which facilitates its use in various chemical reactions.
