Description

2-Bromo-4-chlorotoluene is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C6H4BrClO. It is an aromatic peroxide that has a chlorine atom attached to one of the benzene rings. 2-Bromo-4-chlorotoluene is produced by the reaction of bromine with chlorotoluene in the presence of hydrogen peroxide and sodium periodate. The reaction takes place at room temperature, producing a colourless liquid with a pungent odour. This chemical can be identified by its infrared frequencies, which are observed as vibrations between 1650 and 1700 cm−1. The molecule has a dipole moment of 0.5 D, which means it can transfer electrons to other molecules or atoms in order to form bonds. 2-Bromo-4-chlorotoluene is used as an intermediate for organic compounds such as glycol dimethyl ethers.
