CAS 3771-13-9

Benzene, 2-(bromomethyl)-1-chloro-4-methoxy-

Description:

Benzene, 2-(bromomethyl)-1-chloro-4-methoxy-, also known by its CAS number 3771-13-9, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a benzene ring substituted with various functional groups. The presence of a bromomethyl group indicates that a bromomethyl (-CH2Br) moiety is attached to the second carbon of the benzene ring, while a chlorine atom is substituted at the first position and a methoxy group (-OCH3) at the fourth position. This compound exhibits typical properties of aromatic compounds, such as stability and distinct reactivity patterns due to the delocalized π-electrons in the benzene ring. It is likely to be a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. The presence of halogen substituents (bromine and chlorine) can influence its reactivity, making it susceptible to nucleophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, the methoxy group can affect the compound's solubility and polarity, enhancing its potential applications in organic synthesis and pharmaceuticals.

CAS: 3771-13-9

2-Chloro-5-methoxybenzyl bromide is a cyclization agent that is used in the synthesis of tetracyclines, polyphosphoric acid, and tetralones. It is typically used as a catalyst for cyclization reactions involving aromatic rings. This agent reacts with phosphorus oxychloride to produce polyphosphoric acid. Polyphosphoric acid can be used to synthesize tetracyclines and tetralones. 2-Chloro-5-methoxybenzyl bromide also acts as an oxidizing agent that converts primary alcohols into carboxylic acids and secondary alcohols into ketones or aldehydes.
