CAS 52711-30-5

1-Bromo-2-(methoxymethyl)benzene

Description:

1-Bromo-2-(methoxymethyl)benzene, with the CAS number 52711-30-5, is an organic compound that features a bromine atom and a methoxymethyl group attached to a benzene ring. This compound is characterized by its aromatic structure, which contributes to its stability and reactivity. The presence of the bromine substituent makes it a potential electrophile, allowing it to participate in various nucleophilic substitution reactions. The methoxymethyl group introduces a methoxy functional group, which can influence the compound's solubility and reactivity. Typically, compounds like this exhibit moderate polarity due to the presence of both the bromine and methoxy groups, affecting their interactions with solvents and other reagents. Additionally, 1-Bromo-2-(methoxymethyl)benzene may be utilized in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of more complex molecules through reactions such as cross-coupling or nucleophilic substitution. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as halogenated compounds can pose health and environmental risks.
