Product Information

• Name: 2-Bromoadamantane
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Bromoadamantane is a molecule that is reactive with nucleophilic groups. It reacts rapidly with halides to form bromide and other products. The cavity in the molecule provides a site for reaction, and the reactive center of the molecule is at the proton. The reactivity of 2-bromoadamantane can be increased by substituting chlorine or bromine atoms for hydrogen atoms, which are less reactive than halogens. The NMR spectra show that 2-bromoadamantane has three resonances at 8.2, 7.3, and 6.7 ppm, corresponding to the protons on carbon 1, carbon 2, and carbon 3 respectively. The rate of reaction increases when catalysts such as copper chloride are added to the reaction mixture. Activation energies are necessary to determine how much energy is needed for the reaction to take place; this value varies depending on which catalyst is used in the reaction.END>
