1-Bromo-4,5-dimethoxy-2-methylbenzene

Description:

1-Bromo-4,5-dimethoxy-2-methylbenzene, with the CAS number 52806-46-9, is an organic compound belonging to the class of brominated aromatic hydrocarbons. It features a bromine atom attached to a benzene ring that also contains two methoxy groups (-OCH3) at the 4 and 5 positions and a methyl group (-CH3) at the 2 position. This compound is characterized by its relatively low solubility in water, typical of many aromatic compounds, but it is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and dichloromethane. The presence of the bromine atom introduces a degree of reactivity, making it useful in various chemical synthesis processes, including electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. The methoxy groups can influence the electronic properties of the benzene ring, affecting its reactivity and stability. Additionally, this compound may exhibit interesting biological activities, making it a subject of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as brominated compounds can be hazardous.
