2-Bromohexane is the organobromine compound with the formula CH 3 CH(Br)(CH 2) 3 CH 3. It is a colorless liquid. The compound is chiral. Most 2-bromoalkanes are prepared by addition of hydrogen bromide to the 1-alkene. Markovnikov addition proceeds in the absence of free-radicals, i.e. give the 2-bromo derivatives. [2]

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.

1-Bromohexane undergoes reactions expected of simple alkyl bromides. It can form Grignard reagents . [ 3 ] It reacts with potassium fluoride to give the corresponding fluorocarbons .
Wittig reagents are used in organic synthesis. They are derived from phosphonium salts. A strong base such as butyllithium or sodium amide is required for the deprotonation: [Ph 3 P + CH 2 R]X − + C 4 H 9 Li → Ph 3 P=CHR + LiX + C 4 H 10. One of the simplest ylides is methylenetriphenylphosphorane (Ph 3 P=CH 2). [6]
