Description:1-Bromo-4-octylbenzene, with the CAS number 51554-93-9, is an organic compound characterized by a bromine atom attached to a benzene ring that is further substituted with an octyl group at the para position. This compound belongs to the class of alkylbenzenes and is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature. Its molecular structure contributes to its hydrophobic nature, making it less soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents. The presence of the bromine atom introduces reactivity, allowing for potential applications in organic synthesis and materials science. Additionally, the octyl group enhances the compound's lipophilicity, which can influence its behavior in biological systems and its interactions with other chemical species. Due to its unique properties, 1-Bromo-4-octylbenzene may be utilized in various industrial applications, including as a precursor in the synthesis of other organic compounds or as a component in specialty chemicals. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as halogenated compounds can pose environmental and health risks.
