CAS 3674-13-3: Ethyl 2,3-dibromopropanoate

Description: Ethyl 2,3-dibromopropanoate is an organic compound classified as an ester, specifically an alkyl ester derived from propanoic acid. It features a propanoate backbone with two bromine atoms substituted at the 2 and 3 positions of the carbon chain, along with an ethyl group attached to the carboxylate. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic fruity odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic ethyl group and the presence of bromine atoms, which can influence its polarity. Ethyl 2,3-dibromopropanoate is often used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various brominated compounds and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its reactivity is influenced by the presence of the bromine substituents, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
