2-bromodecanal

Description:

2-Bromodecanal is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes a bromine atom attached to the second carbon of a decanal chain, making it a brominated aldehyde. Its molecular formula is C10H19BrO, indicating the presence of a long hydrocarbon chain with a functional aldehyde group (-CHO) at one end. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor, reflecting its aldehyde nature. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic alkyl chain. 2-Bromodecanal can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and reductions, making it useful in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks, including irritation to the skin and respiratory system. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from light is recommended to maintain its stability and integrity.
