4-Bromobenzyl alcohol is a chemical compound that can be used to synthesize other compounds. It is an aromatic alcohol that has two hydroxyl groups and one bromine atom attached to the benzene ring. The synthesis of 4-bromobenzyl alcohol involves the reaction of methyl ketones, acetonitrile, imidazole, copper salts, and an organic solvent. The reaction is a substitution reaction in which an electron-withdrawing group (the bromine) replaces a hydrogen atom on the ring. The copper catalyst promotes this substitution by activating the methyl ketones and acetonitrile. This process can also be achieved with copper or copper salts as catalysts instead of copper salts. In order to make 4-bromobenzyl alcohol, arylboronic acids are reacted with primary alcohols in the presence of a reducing agent such as sodium borohydride or lithium aluminum hydride to produce 2-amin
