CAS 3395-91-3: Methyl 3-bromopropanoate

Description: Methyl 3-bromopropanoate is an organic compound classified as an ester, specifically a brominated propanoate. It features a methyl group attached to the ester functional group, with a bromine atom located on the third carbon of the propanoate chain. The molecular formula for this compound is C5H9BrO2, indicating the presence of five carbon atoms, nine hydrogen atoms, one bromine atom, and two oxygen atoms. Methyl 3-bromopropanoate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor, characteristic of many esters. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic carbon chain. This compound is often used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, owing to its reactivity as an electrophile in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, and appropriate personal protective equipment should be used.
