ethyl 3-(3-bromophenyl)propanoate

Description:
Ethyl 3-(3-bromophenyl)propanoate is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group, which is derived from the reaction of ethyl alcohol and a carboxylic acid. This compound features a propanoate backbone with a bromophenyl substituent at the 3-position, contributing to its unique chemical properties. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant, fruity odor. The presence of the bromine atom enhances its reactivity, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Ethyl 3-(3-bromophenyl)propanoate is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. Its molecular structure allows for various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and coupling reactions, which are valuable in synthetic organic chemistry. Safety data indicates that, like many brominated compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns.
