2-Bromobutane

Description:

2-Bromobutane is an organic compound classified as a haloalkane, specifically a bromoalkane, with the molecular formula C4H9Br. It features a four-carbon straight-chain structure with a bromine atom attached to the second carbon, making it a secondary alkyl halide. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and has a characteristic odor. 2-Bromobutane is soluble in organic solvents such as ether and alcohol but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain. It is used in organic synthesis as an alkylating agent and can participate in various reactions, including nucleophilic substitution and elimination reactions. The presence of the bromine atom makes it a good candidate for reactions that involve the formation of carbon-carbon bonds. Additionally, 2-Bromobutane can be utilized in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it can be harmful if inhaled or ingested and may cause skin irritation.
