2-Benzofurancarboxaldehyde, 3-bromo-

Description:

2-Benzofurancarboxaldehyde, 3-bromo- is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a benzofuran ring system and a carboxaldehyde functional group, along with a bromine substituent at the 3-position of the benzofuran moiety. This compound typically exhibits a pale yellow to brownish color and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and dichloromethane, but may have limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic benzofuran structure. The presence of the aldehyde group makes it reactive, particularly in nucleophilic addition reactions, and it can participate in various chemical transformations, including condensation and oxidation reactions. The bromine atom introduces additional reactivity, allowing for further substitution reactions. 2-Benzofurancarboxaldehyde, 3-bromo- is of interest in synthetic organic chemistry and may have applications in the development of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals, owing to the biological activity often associated with benzofuran derivatives. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks.
