• Description: 3-Methylbenzyl bromide is a chemical compound that belongs to the class of reactive chemicals. It is an organic compound that can be synthesized from natural compounds, such as benzyl alcohol and chloroform, or by reacting phenol with bromine. 3-Methylbenzyl bromide has been shown to bind to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors in rat brain and inhibit their activity. This inhibition leads to a decrease in the production of GABA, which is a neurotransmitter involved in the regulation of muscle tone, mood, and anxiety levels.
