1,2,4,5-Tetrabromobenzene is an aryl bromide and a four-substituted bromobenzene with the formula C 6 H 2 Br 4. It is one of three isomers of tetrabromobenzene. The compound is a white solid. 1,2,4,5-Tetrabromobenzene is an important metabolite of the flame retardant hexabromobenzene. [1]
Bromobenzene is an aryl bromide and the simplest of the bromobenzenes, consisting of a benzene ring substituted with one bromine atom. Its chemical formula is C 6 H 5 Br . It is a colourless liquid although older samples can appear yellow.
A protein precursor, also called a pro-protein or pro-peptide, is an inactive protein (or peptide) that can be turned into an active form by post-translational modification, such as breaking off a piece of the molecule or adding on another molecule. The name of the precursor for a protein is often prefixed by pro-.
Bromobenzenes may be carboxylated into carboxylic acids using carbon monoxide.The reaction takes place in a two-phase mixture of p-xylene and water as solvent, in the presence of catalytic PdCl
Bromotoluenes are precursors to many organic building blocks. For example, the methyl group may be oxidized using potassium permanganate to form the corresponding bromobenzoic acid . [ 5 ] The methyl group may also be partially oxidized to form bromobenzaldehyde .
Benzyl bromide is used in organic synthesis for the introduction of the benzyl groups when the less expensive benzyl chloride is insufficiently reactive. [6] [7] Benzylations are often achieved in the presence of catalytic amounts of sodium iodide, which generates the more reactive benzyl iodide in situ. [3]
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.
Chemical structure of 2-bromophenol. A bromophenol is an organic compound consisting of hydroxyl groups and bromine atoms bonded to a benzene ring. They may be viewed as hydroxyl derivatives of bromobenzene, or as brominated derivatives of phenol.
