Product Information
Name:3-Bromo-2-butanone
Brand:Biosynth
Description:3-Bromo-2-butanone is a chemical compound that has been detected in the lithosphere and is produced by the action of phosphorus pentoxide on brominated hydrocarbons. 3-Bromo-2-butanone can be used as an analog for acetaldehyde to study the effects of reactive species. It was found that 3-bromo-2-butanone reacts with phosphite in acetic acid to form a chlamydozonium ion and an acid catalyst, which leads to the formation of acetaldehyde. The reaction mechanism is shown below: 3BrCH=CHBr + P(O)OH → CH=CHCOH + H+ The overall reaction can be represented as: 3BrCH=CHBr + P(O)OH → CH=CHCOH + H+ HOAc + H+ → HOAc
