CAS 52997-43-0: 7-(bromomethyl)pentadecane

Description: 7-(Bromomethyl)pentadecane is an organic compound characterized by a long hydrocarbon chain with a bromomethyl group attached to the seventh carbon atom. It belongs to the class of alkyl halides, specifically bromides, and has a molecular structure that consists of 15 carbon atoms and a bromine atom. The presence of the bromomethyl group introduces a polar functional group, which can influence the compound's reactivity and solubility in various solvents. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. Its properties include a relatively high boiling point due to the long carbon chain, and it may exhibit hydrophobic characteristics, making it less soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents. The bromine atom can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions, making 7-(bromomethyl)pentadecane a useful intermediate in organic synthesis for the preparation of various derivatives. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks associated with brominated organic compounds.
