Ethyl bromoacetate-2-13C is a labeled compound used primarily in organic synthesis and as a tracer in metabolic studies. It is an ester formed from bromoacetic acid and ethanol, where the carbon atom at the second position of the acetate group is isotopically labeled with carbon-13 (13C). This substitution allows for enhanced detection and analysis using techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The presence of the bromine atom makes it a reactive electrophile, which can participate in various nucleophilic substitution reactions. Ethyl bromoacetate-2-13C is typically a colorless liquid with a characteristic odor, and it is soluble in organic solvents. Its applications extend to the study of metabolic pathways and the synthesis of other chemical compounds, making it valuable in both research and industrial contexts. As with many halogenated compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns.
