2-Chlorobenzyl bromide

Description:

2-Chlorobenzyl bromide, with the CAS number 611-17-6, is an organic compound classified as an aryl halide. It features a benzyl group substituted with both a chlorine atom and a bromine atom, specifically at the 2-position relative to the benzyl group. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor. It is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, due to the presence of the halogen atoms, which can act as leaving groups. 2-Chlorobenzyl bromide is soluble in organic solvents such as ether and chloroform but has limited solubility in water. It is used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this compound, as it can be harmful if inhaled or absorbed through the skin, and it may pose environmental hazards. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from incompatible substances is recommended to maintain its stability and prevent degradation.
