Product Information

• Name: 1,8-Bis(bromomethyl)naphthalene

Description

1,8-Bis(bromomethyl)naphthalene is a naphthalene compound that has been shown to be a monoradical. It is synthesized by the replacement of two hydrogen atoms with bromine in the molecule. This reaction produces an alkylating agent and a molecule with a β-unsaturated aldehyde group. The compound has been studied using X-ray diffraction, where it has been found to have reactivity similar to other molecules with carbonyl groups. 1,8-Bis(bromomethyl)naphthalene has also been synthesized and studied by functional theory calculations. These calculations show that the bond lengths for this molecule are closer to those of benzene than those of naphthalene, which may account for its unusual reactivity.
