2,4-Dibromo-3-pentanone

Description:
2,4-Dibromo-3-pentanone is an organic compound characterized by its ketone functional group and the presence of two bromine atoms at the 2 and 4 positions of the pentanone chain. It has a molecular formula of C5H8Br2O and features a five-carbon backbone with a carbonyl group (C=O) located at the third carbon. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic carbon chain. 2,4-Dibromo-3-pentanone is primarily used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Its bromine substituents enhance its reactivity, making it useful in substitution reactions. However, due to the presence of bromine, it may pose environmental and health risks, necessitating careful handling and disposal. As with many halogenated compounds, it is important to consider its potential toxicity and environmental impact during use.
