Benzoyl bromide, 4-chloro-

Description:
Benzoyl bromide, 4-chloro- is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both a benzoyl group and a bromine atom, along with a chlorine substituent on the aromatic ring. Its molecular structure features a carbonyl group (C=O) adjacent to a bromine atom, making it a reactive acyl halide. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor, and it is known for its reactivity, particularly in acylation reactions. It can undergo hydrolysis in the presence of water, leading to the formation of benzoic acid and hydrogen bromide. Due to its electrophilic nature, benzoyl bromide, 4-chloro- is often utilized in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various derivatives and in the introduction of acyl groups into other molecules. However, it should be handled with care due to its corrosive properties and potential to cause irritation upon contact with skin or mucous membranes. Proper safety precautions, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential when working with this compound.
