Description:4-Iodo-n-propylbenzene, also known as p-iodopropylbenzene, is an organic compound characterized by a benzene ring substituted with an iodine atom at the para position and a propyl group at the ortho position. Its molecular formula is C10H13I, indicating the presence of carbon, hydrogen, and iodine. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor. It is relatively insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. The presence of the iodine atom makes it a useful precursor in organic synthesis, particularly in the formation of various iodinated compounds. Additionally, 4-iodo-n-propylbenzene can participate in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions, allowing for further functionalization of the aromatic ring. Due to its iodine content, it may also exhibit some antimicrobial properties. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as iodine can be hazardous in certain concentrations.
