Description

1-Bromopentane is a colorless liquid that has an unpleasant odor. It is soluble in water and reacts with acids to form bromides. 1-Bromopentane has been used as an oxidation catalyst in the preparation of organic compounds under conditions of constant pressure and light exposure. It has also been used in the synthesis of polymers, such as poly(1-bromopentene). Its biological properties are not well known, but it has been shown to have CB2 receptor agonist activity and inhibitory effects on oxidative stress. The chemical kinetic data for 1-bromopentane are available at various temperatures and pressures. Chloride ions can act as catalysts for its decomposition reaction, which is a stepwise process involving the conversion of hydroxyl groups into chloride atoms. The reaction mechanism starts with the conversion of one bromine atom into a radical by abstraction of a hydrogen atom from the molecule followed by addition of another brom
