Ethyl 2-bromo-3-methylbutanoate

Description:

Ethyl 2-bromo-3-methylbutanoate is an organic compound classified as an ester, specifically an alkyl bromide. It features a branched carbon chain, with a bromo substituent at the second carbon and an ethyl ester functional group. The molecular formula is C7H13BrO2, indicating the presence of carbon, hydrogen, bromine, and oxygen atoms. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a fruity odor, characteristic of many esters. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic alkyl chains. Ethyl 2-bromo-3-methylbutanoate is often used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to its reactivity as an electrophile in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks, including irritation to the skin and eyes, and potential toxicity if ingested or inhaled. Proper storage and disposal methods are essential to mitigate environmental impact.

Ethyl 2-bromoisovalerate is a chemical compound that is used as a vector for DNA. It has been proposed to be used as a means of introducing genes into bacteria, since it can be easily hydrolyzed by lipases. Ethyl 2-bromoisovalerate has been shown to provide efficient transformation rates in E. coli and other Gram-negative bacteria. This chemical compound also has the ability to form racemic mixtures with acrylic acid and thus can be used for the synthesis of optically pure products. The recombinant DNA sequences are synthesized from the desired amino acid sequence using this vector, which is then transformed into cells capable of expressing the protein product.
