3,5-Dimethoxybenzyl bromide

Description:

3,5-Dimethoxybenzyl bromide is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, featuring a benzene ring substituted with two methoxy groups at the 3 and 5 positions and a bromomethyl group. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is known for its reactivity due to the presence of the bromine atom, which can participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions. The methoxy groups enhance the electron density of the aromatic ring, making it more reactive towards electrophiles. 3,5-Dimethoxybenzyl bromide is often used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It is important to handle this compound with care, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, and appropriate safety measures should be taken during its use and storage. Additionally, it is soluble in organic solvents, which facilitates its application in various chemical reactions.

3,5-Dimethoxybenzyl bromide

CAS: 877-88-3

3,5-Dimethoxybenzyl bromide is a difluoro compound that has been synthesized as a potential CB2 receptor agonist. It has been shown to bind to both CB1 and CB2 receptors in cell culture. 3,5-Dimethoxybenzyl bromide has also been shown to inhibit the growth of mouse melanoma cells by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest, which may be due to its ability to demethylate pterostilbene derivatives. 3,5-Dimethoxybenzyl bromide is an example of a nucleophilic agent because it can donate a proton from the hydroxyl group on the benzene ring. The chloride ion forms an ionic bond with the negatively charged oxygen atom on the benzoic acid group. This type of bond is called an ester linkage or ester bond.
