Benzyl bromide is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 5 CH 2 Br. The molecule consists of a benzene ring substituted with a bromomethyl group. It is a colorless liquid with lachrymatory properties. The compound is a reagent for introducing benzyl groups. [3] [4]
Phenylboronic acid or benzeneboronic acid, abbreviated as PhB(OH) 2 where Ph is the phenyl group C 6 H 5 - and B(OH) 2 is a boronic acid containing a phenyl substituent and two hydroxyl groups attached to boron. Phenylboronic acid is a white powder and is commonly used in organic synthesis.
Most primary and secondary perfluoroalcohols are unstable, for example trifluoromethanol eliminates hydrogen fluoride, forming carbonyl fluoride. [2] This reaction is reversible. [3] CF 3 OH → COF 2 + HF. Stable perfluorinated alcohols include nonafluoro-tert-butyl alcohol ((CF 3) 3 COH) and pentafluorophenol (C 6 F 5 OH).
PhN=N-N(CH 2) 5 + 2 HF → PhF + N 2 + [(CH 2) 5 NH 2]F. Historical note: in Wallach's era, the element fluorine was symbolized with "Fl". Thus, his procedure is subtitled "Fluorbenzol, C 6 H 5 Fl". [1] On the laboratory scale, PhF is prepared by the thermal decomposition of the benzenediazonium tetrafluoroborate: PhN 2 BF 4 → PhF + BF 3 + N 2
The reaction is initiated by addition of a catalytic amount of PBr 3, after which one molar equivalent of Br 2 is added. PBr 3 converts the carboxylic OH to the acyl bromide. The acyl bromide tautomerizes to an enol, which reacts with the Br 2 to brominate at the α position.In neutral to slightly acidic aqueous solution, hydrolysis of the α-bromo acyl bromide occurs spontaneously, yielding ...
Arylsulfonyl chlorides are made industrially in a two-step, one-pot reaction from an arene (in this case, benzene) and chlorosulfuric acid: [4] C 6 H 6 + HOSO 2 Cl → C 6 H 5 SO 3 H + HCl C 6 H 5 SO 3 H + HOSO 2 Cl → C 6 H 5 SO 2 Cl + H 2 SO 4. The intermediate benzenesulfonic acid can be chlorinated with thionyl chloride as well.
Ethyl bromodifluoroacetate is an ester with the chemical formula F 2 Br C H−CO 2 CH 2 CH 3. It can be used to introduce the CF 2 group when synthesising chemical compounds. It is a colorless to yellow liquid. It is an ethyl ester of bromodifluoroacetic acid.
An example involves the conversion of the ethyl ester of 5-bromovaleric acid to the iodide: [4] EtO 2 C(CH 2) 4 Br + NaI → EtO 2 C(CH 2) 4 I + NaBr. Potassium fluoride is used for the conversion of chlorocarbons into fluorocarbons. [5] Such reactions usually employ polar solvents such as dimethyl formamide, ethylene glycol, and dimethyl ...
