2-Bromo-6-nitrotoluene

Description:

2-Bromo-6-nitrotoluene is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both bromine and nitro functional groups attached to a toluene backbone. It features a bromine atom at the second position and a nitro group at the sixth position of the aromatic ring, which influences its reactivity and physical properties. This compound typically appears as a yellow to brown solid and is sparingly soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone. The presence of the bromine and nitro groups makes it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals. Additionally, 2-bromo-6-nitrotoluene can undergo various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitution and electrophilic aromatic substitution, due to the electron-withdrawing nature of the nitro group and the electron-donating properties of the methyl group. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks and environmental hazards.

2-Bromo-6-nitrotoluene

CAS: 55289-35-5

2-Bromo-6-nitrotoluene is a chemical compound that has been shown to bind to the 5-HT7 receptor of the human protein. It has been shown to have affinity for this receptor and functional assays have found it to be selective for this receptor. The hydrogen bonding interactions between 2-bromo-6-nitrotoluene and the 5-HT7 receptor are stronger than those between 2-bromo-6-nitrotoluene and other receptors, such as the 5-HT1A and 5HT1D receptors. Additionally, molecular modeling studies have shown that 2-bromo-6-nitrotoluene has a higher binding affinity for the 5HT7 receptor than other serotonin receptors. This molecule has been synthesized by researchers in a scalable synthesis process with high yields. The intramolecular hydrogen bonds may also help stabilize this molecule in vivo, as they would not be expected to break down
