2-Bromotetradecane is an organic compound classified as a haloalkane, specifically a brominated alkane. It features a tetradecane backbone, which consists of a straight-chain of 14 carbon atoms, with a bromine atom attached to the second carbon in the chain. This structural arrangement gives it unique chemical properties, including increased reactivity compared to its non-brominated counterparts. The presence of the bromine atom introduces a polar functional group, which can enhance its solubility in organic solvents while making it less soluble in water. 2-Bromotetradecane is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and has a relatively high boiling point due to the presence of the bromine atom, which increases molecular weight and intermolecular forces. It is used in various applications, including organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks through inhalation or skin contact.
