Description

5-Bromo-2-methoxytoluene is a bromoarene that reacts to form aziridines and phosphotungstic acid. It is used in the synthesis of polyaromatic compounds with steric interactions. 5-Bromo-2-methoxytoluene is also a functional group that can be used as an allosteric modulator. This compound also has stereoisomers that are chiral, meaning they have different structures despite being mirror images of each other. The carbonyl group on the 5-bromo compound is polar, which means it has a charge. The hydrogen bonds between this compound and other molecules are nonpolar, which means they do not have a charge and are more likely to form in a nonpolar solvent.
