CAS 3377-86-4: 2-Bromohexane

Description: 2-Bromohexane is an organic compound classified as a haloalkane, specifically a bromoalkane, due to the presence of a bromine atom attached to a hexane chain. Its molecular formula is C6H13Br, indicating it consists of six carbon atoms, thirteen hydrogen atoms, and one bromine atom. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and has a characteristic odor. 2-Bromohexane is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, where the bromine atom can be replaced by various nucleophiles. It is also used as an intermediate in organic synthesis and in the production of other chemical compounds. The presence of the bromine atom makes it a polar molecule, which influences its solubility in different solvents; it is generally more soluble in organic solvents than in water. Additionally, 2-Bromohexane is flammable and should be handled with care, following appropriate safety protocols to minimize exposure and risks associated with its use.
