2-Phenylethyl bromide is an organobromide with the formula C 6 H 5 CH 2 CH 2 Br. It is a colorless liquid, although older samples appear yellow. Analogous to the preparation of most 1-bromoalkanes, it is prepared by free-radical addition of hydrogen bromide to styrene. These conditions lead to anti-Markovnikov addition, giving the 1-bromo ...
Thiofentanyl is made with the same synthetic route as fentanyl, but by substituting 2-(2-bromoethyl)thiophene for phenethyl bromide in the synthesis. Side effects of fentanyl analogs are similar to those of fentanyl itself, which include itching , nausea and potentially serious respiratory depression , which can be life-threatening.
Phenethyl alcohol is prepared commercially via two routes. Most common is the Friedel-Crafts reaction between benzene and ethylene oxide in the presence of aluminium trichloride. C 6 H 6 + CH 2 CH 2 O + AlCl 3 → C 6 H 5 CH 2 CH 2 OAlCl 2 + HCl. The reaction affords the aluminium alkoxide that is subsequently hydrolyzed to the desired product.
2,4-Dichlorobenzyl alcohol is a mild antiseptic, able to kill bacteria and viruses associated with mouth and throat infections. It is a common ingredient in throat lozenges such as Cofsils , Strepsils , Lorsept, and Gorpils.
2-Phenethyl propionate, also known as phenethyl propanoate or phenylethyl propionate, [2] is the ester of phenethyl alcohol and propionic acid. It can be found in peanuts. [3] It has shown antifungal activity [4] and was tested as a pesticide. [5] It is used in some preparations used in the management of bed bugs [6] and in other pesticide ...
Bromism is the syndrome which results from the long-term consumption of bromine, usually through bromine-based sedatives such as potassium bromide and lithium bromide. Bromism was once a very common disorder, being responsible for 5 to 10% of psychiatric hospital admissions, but is now uncommon since bromide was withdrawn from clinical use in ...
RCH=CH 2 + HBr → RCHBrCH 3. Under free radical conditions, the direction of the addition can be reversed. Free-radical addition is used commercially for the synthesis of 1-bromoalkanes, precursors to tertiary amines and quaternary ammonium salts. 2-Phenethyl bromide (C 6 H 5 CH 2 CH 2 Br) is produced via this route from styrene.
Benzyl alcohol is not considered to be a carcinogen, and no data are available regarding teratogenic or reproductive effects. [5] Benzyl alcohol has low acute toxicity with an LD 50 of 1.2 g/kg in rats. [5] It oxidizes rapidly in healthy individuals to benzoic acid, conjugated with glycine in the liver, and excreted as hippuric acid. Very high ...
