CAS 620-72-4

phenyl bromoacetate

Description:

Phenyl bromoacetate, with the CAS number 620-72-4, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group and the presence of a bromine atom. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sweet, fruity odor. The compound is soluble in organic solvents such as ether and chloroform but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. Phenyl bromoacetate is known for its reactivity, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions, where the bromine atom can be displaced by various nucleophiles. This makes it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, it can undergo hydrolysis to form phenyl acetate and hydrobromic acid. Safety considerations include handling it in a well-ventilated area and using appropriate personal protective equipment, as it may be harmful if inhaled or absorbed through the skin. Overall, phenyl bromoacetate is an important compound in synthetic organic chemistry with diverse applications.

Phenyl Bromoacetate

CAS: 620-72-4

Phenyl Bromoacetate is an odorless liquid that is soluble in water. It has a hydroxyl group and a carbonyl group. Phenyl Bromoacetate has been used to synthesize piperazine, which is an antipsychotic drug. Phenyl Bromoacetate also has been used as a reagent for the synthesis of organic compounds with asymmetric centers. It reacts with nucleophiles such as amines, alcohols, or thiols and forms the corresponding phenyl bromide. The reaction product is acidic due to the presence of the phenol group in its structure. Phenyl Bromoacetate can be used in analytical methods for detecting various human pathogens, such as Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli O157:H7, as well as depressive disorders.
