Description

1-Bromo-3-chloro-2-methylpropane is a halocarbon that is used as a reagent in organic synthesis. It has been used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals such as acetaminophen and ibuprofen, as well as other compounds. It is also used to study the properties of halocarbons, including thermal conductivity and isomerism. The reactions are typically carried out using a Grignard reagent, which reacts with the bromide ion to form an organobromine compound. The reaction can be done experimentally or in the laboratory.
