:Oxirane, (2-bromophenyl)-
Description:
Oxirane, (2-bromophenyl)-, also known as 2-bromophenyl oxirane, is a chemical compound characterized by the presence of an epoxide functional group (oxirane) attached to a 2-bromophenyl group. This compound features a three-membered cyclic ether structure, which is highly reactive due to the strain in the ring. The bromine atom on the phenyl ring enhances the electrophilic character of the oxirane, making it a useful intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the formation of various derivatives through nucleophilic ring-opening reactions. The presence of the bromine substituent can also influence the compound's physical properties, such as solubility and boiling point. Additionally, oxiranes are known for their applications in the production of polymers, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals. Safety considerations are important when handling this compound, as epoxides can be toxic and reactive. Proper storage and handling protocols should be followed to mitigate risks associated with exposure.

2-(2-Bromophenyl)oxirane
CAS:<p>2-(2-Bromophenyl)oxirane is a sulfinyl compound that is used in the synthesis of epipodophyllotoxins. It has been shown to react with an enolate of a malonate, forming a β-unsaturated lactone and a sulfinyl group. This reaction is regioselective, giving the desired epipodophyllotoxin with the sulfinyl group on the less hindered side of the molecule. The deuterated analogues of 2-(2-bromophenyl)oxirane can be prepared by substituting one or more hydrogens with deuterium atoms. These analogues are useful for studying conformational changes in molecules because they have different nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra from their non-deuterated counterparts. 2-(2-Bromophenyl)oxirane is also useful for synthesizing styrene derivatives such as ring-opened compounds.</p>Formula:C8H7BrOPurity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:199.04 g/mol
