:2-Bromooctane
Description:
2-Bromooctane is an organic compound classified as a haloalkane, specifically an alkyl bromide. It features a straight-chain octane backbone with a bromine atom attached to the second carbon atom. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and possesses a characteristic odor. Its molecular formula is C8H17Br, and it has a relatively low boiling point compared to other brominated compounds, which is indicative of its moderate volatility. 2-Bromooctane is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic alkyl chain. It is commonly used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of other chemical compounds through nucleophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, 2-bromooctane can serve as a reagent in various chemical reactions, including those involving Grignard reagents or in the synthesis of surfactants and pharmaceuticals. As with many brominated compounds, it is important to handle 2-bromooctane with care due to potential health and environmental hazards associated with bromine-containing substances.
