ethyl 2,4-dibromobutyrate

Description:
Ethyl 2,4-dibromobutyrate is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, derived from butyric acid and ethanol. It features a butyrate backbone with two bromine substituents located at the 2 and 4 positions of the carbon chain. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor, indicative of its ester nature. Ethyl 2,4-dibromobutyrate is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic alkyl chains. It is often used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various chemical compounds. The presence of bromine atoms enhances its reactivity, making it useful in substitution reactions and other synthetic applications. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from light is recommended to maintain its stability.
