CAS 3958-60-9: 2-Nitrobenzyl bromide

Description: 2-Nitrobenzyl bromide is an organic compound characterized by its nitro and bromine substituents on a benzene ring. It features a nitro group (-NO2) positioned at the second carbon and a bromine atom (-Br) at the benzyl position, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis. This compound is typically a pale yellow to brown liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, where the bromine atom can be replaced by various nucleophiles. The presence of the electron-withdrawing nitro group enhances the electrophilicity of the benzyl bromide, facilitating these reactions. 2-Nitrobenzyl bromide is also utilized in photochemistry, as it can undergo photolytic cleavage, making it valuable in the development of photoresponsive materials. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, and proper storage conditions should be maintained to prevent degradation.
