CAS 506-96-7: Acetyl bromide
Description:Acetyl bromide, with the chemical formula C2H3BrO and CAS number 506-96-7, is an organic compound characterized by its reactivity and utility in organic synthesis. It appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, reminiscent of acetic acid. Acetyl bromide is known for its role as an acetylating agent, facilitating the introduction of acetyl groups into various organic molecules. It is highly reactive, particularly with water, leading to the formation of acetic acid and hydrobromic acid upon hydrolysis. This compound is also sensitive to moisture and should be handled under anhydrous conditions to prevent degradation. Acetyl bromide is typically stored in tightly sealed containers to minimize exposure to air and humidity. Due to its reactivity, it is important to use appropriate safety measures, including gloves and eye protection, when handling this substance, as it can cause irritation to the skin and eyes. Its applications extend to the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other organic compounds, making it a valuable reagent in chemical research and industry.
