CAS 539-74-2: Ethyl 3-bromopropionate

Description: Ethyl 3-bromopropionate is an organic compound classified as an ester, specifically an alkyl bromide. It is characterized by its molecular formula, which includes carbon, hydrogen, and bromine atoms. The compound features a propionate group, where a bromine atom is attached to the third carbon of the propionic acid chain, and an ethyl group is esterified to the carboxylic acid. Ethyl 3-bromopropionate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor, making it useful in flavoring and fragrance applications. It is moderately soluble in water and more soluble in organic solvents. The compound is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, where the bromine atom can be replaced by various nucleophiles. This property makes it valuable in synthetic organic chemistry for the preparation of more complex molecules. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it can be harmful if inhaled or ingested, and it may cause skin and eye irritation.
