Description:1-(2-Bromoethyl)-4-fluoro-benzene, with the CAS number 332-42-3, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a bromine atom and a fluorine atom attached to a benzene ring. The compound features a bromoethyl group, which introduces a two-carbon chain with a bromine substituent, and a fluorine atom positioned para to the bromoethyl group on the aromatic ring. This structure contributes to its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry. The presence of both halogens (bromine and fluorine) can enhance the compound's electrophilic character, making it useful in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions. Additionally, the compound's physical properties, such as boiling point and solubility, are influenced by the halogen substituents and the aromatic nature of the benzene ring. Safety considerations should be taken into account due to the potential toxicity of halogenated compounds. Overall, 1-(2-bromoethyl)-4-fluoro-benzene serves as a valuable intermediate in the synthesis of more complex organic molecules.
