1-(3-Bromophenyl)ethanol

Description:
1-(3-Bromophenyl)ethanol, with the CAS number 52780-14-0, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a bromophenyl group attached to a secondary alcohol. Its molecular structure features a bromine atom substituted at the para position of a phenyl ring, which influences its reactivity and physical properties. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic nature due to the aromatic ring. The presence of the hydroxyl (-OH) group imparts polar characteristics, allowing for hydrogen bonding, which can affect its boiling point and solubility in water. 1-(3-Bromophenyl)ethanol can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and oxidation, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis. Its bromine substituent can also serve as a site for further functionalization, enhancing its utility in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as halogenated compounds can pose health risks.
