2,3-Dibromopentane

Description:
2,3-Dibromopentane is an organic compound classified as a dibrominated alkane, specifically a derivative of pentane. Its molecular formula is C5H10Br2, indicating the presence of five carbon atoms, ten hydrogen atoms, and two bromine atoms. This compound exists in several stereoisomeric forms due to the presence of chiral centers at the second and third carbon atoms. 2,3-Dibromopentane is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and is characterized by its relatively high density and boiling point compared to non-brominated alkanes. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ether and chloroform but has limited solubility in water. The presence of bromine atoms makes it a useful reagent in organic synthesis, particularly in substitution reactions and as an intermediate in the preparation of other chemical compounds. Additionally, 2,3-dibromopentane can exhibit different physical and chemical properties depending on its stereochemistry, influencing its reactivity and interactions in various chemical environments.
