4-Fluorobromobenzene is synthesized via bromination of fluorobenzene in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst such as iron(III) bromide or aluminium tribromide. [2]4-Bromofluorobenzene is regarded by the Toxic Substances Control Act as a high production volume chemical, that is, a chemical that 1 million pounds (about 500 tonnes) per year is either produced in or imported to the United States.
Bromoform was discovered in 1832 by Löwig who distilled a mixture of bromal and potassium hydroxide, as analogous to preparation of chloroform from chloral. [5]Bromoform can be prepared by the haloform reaction using acetone and sodium hypobromite, by the electrolysis of potassium bromide in ethanol, or by treating chloroform with aluminium bromide.
4,4’-Difluorobenzophenone is an organic compound with the formula of (FC 6 H 4) 2 CO. This colorless solid is commonly used as a precursor to PEEK, or polyetherether ketone, a so-called high performance polymer. Because PEEK is resistant to attack, it is commonly used in carbon fiber coatings and cable insulation.
1,3-Diisopropylbenzene is produced via transalkylation, a special form of Friedel–Crafts alkylation. It also allows alkyl chains to be added reversibly as protecting groups. This approach is used industrially in the synthesis of 4,4'-biphenol via the oxidative coupling and subsequent dealkylation of 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol. [11] [12]
4-Bromobenzaldehyde, or p-bromobenzaldehyde, is an organobromine compound with the formula BrC 6 H 4 CHO. It is one of three isomers of bromobenzaldehyde . [ 3 ] It displays reactivity characteristic of benzaldehyde and an aryl bromide .
In contrast, the boiling points of PhF and benzene are very similar, differing by only 4 °C. It is considerably more polar than benzene, with a dielectric constant of 5.42 compared to 2.28 for benzene at 298 K. [4] Fluorobenzene is a relatively inert compound reflecting the strength of the C–F bond.
All three have been synthesized by various routes: 1-Bromo-2-chlorobenzene: from 2-chloroaniline, via diazotization followed by a Sandmeyer reaction [1]; 1-Bromo-3-chlorobenzene: by (3-chlorophenyl)trimethylgermanium by electrophilic substitution [2] [better source needed]
4-Bromothiophenol can be synthesized via the reduction of 4-bromo-benzenesulfonyl chloride by red phosphorus and iodine in an acidic solution. [3] Hydrogenation of 4,4'-dibromodiphenyl disulfide also produces 4-bromothiophenol. [4]
