Bromoacetic acid is the chemical compound with the formula Br C H 2 CO 2 H. This colorless solid is a relatively strong alkylating agent . Bromoacetic acid and its esters are widely used building blocks in organic synthesis , for example, in pharmaceutical chemistry .
Ethyl bromoacetate is listed by the World Health Organization as a riot control agent, and was first employed for that purpose by French police in 1912. [4] The French army used rifle grenades 'grenades lacrymogènes' [5] filled with this gas against the Germans beginning in August 1914, but the weapons were largely ineffective, even though ethyl bromoacetate is twice as toxic as chlorine.
In a monohaloacetic acid, a single halogen replaces a hydrogen atom: for example, in bromoacetic acid. Further substitution of hydrogen atoms with halogens can occur, as in dichloroacetic acid and trichloroacetic acid. Haloacetic acids are a common contaminant in treated drinking water, particularly water subjected to chlorination.
Methyl bromoacetate is an alkylating agent.It has been used to alkylate phenol and amino groups. [4] [5] Moreover, it can be used to make vitamins and pharmaceutical drugs.It is commonly used as a reagent in chemical modification of histidine. [2]

A comparison between high-field and zero-field NMR spectra of a sample containing a mixture of [2-13 C]-acetic acid and [2-13 C]-bromoacetic acid. In the high field, the 1 H and 13 C nuclear spin species precess at different frequencies, yielding distinct 1 H and 13 C spectra with the J-coupling perturbation splitting the resonance into doublet ...
