3-(iodomethyl)tetrahydrofuran

Description:

3-(Iodomethyl)tetrahydrofuran is a chemical compound characterized by its tetrahydrofuran ring structure, which is a five-membered cyclic ether. The presence of the iodomethyl group at the 3-position introduces a halogen substituent, enhancing its reactivity and making it useful in various organic synthesis applications. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid, exhibiting moderate polarity due to the ether functionality. Its molecular structure allows for potential nucleophilic substitution reactions, making it a valuable intermediate in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Additionally, the iodomethyl group can serve as a leaving group in reactions, facilitating the formation of carbon-carbon bonds. The compound's properties, such as boiling point and solubility, are influenced by the tetrahydrofuran ring and the iodomethyl substituent. As with many halogenated compounds, it is important to handle 3-(iodomethyl)tetrahydrofuran with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns associated with halogenated organic compounds.
