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.
Bromomethane, commonly known as methyl bromide, is an organobromine compound with formula C H 3 Br. This colorless, odorless, nonflammable gas is produced both industrially and biologically. This colorless, odorless, nonflammable gas is produced both industrially and biologically.
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 ...
Phenethyl alcohol, or 2-phenylethanol, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C 6 H 5 CH 2 CH 2 OH. It is a colourless liquid with a pleasant floral odor. It is a colourless liquid with a pleasant floral odor.
Silver bromide (AgBr). Nearly all elements in the periodic table form binary bromides. The exceptions are decidedly in the minority and stem in each case from one of three causes: extreme inertness and reluctance to participate in chemical reactions (the noble gases, with the exception of xenon in the very unstable XeBr 2; extreme nuclear instability hampering chemical investigation before ...
A study by Graham and co-workers at the Upjohn Co., comparing many β-methylphenethylamines substituted on the benzene ring showed that β-methylphenethylamine itself had 1/700 x the pressor activity of epinephrine, corresponding to ~ 1/3 the potency of amphetamine. The β-methyl compound also had ~ 2 x the broncho-dilating power of amphetamine ...
Methyltriphenylphosphonium bromide is produced by treating triphenylphosphine with methyl bromide: [1] Ph 3 P + CH 3 Br → Ph 3 PCH 3 Br. Methyltriphenylphosphonium bromide is the principal precursor to methylenetriphenylphosphorane, a useful methylenating reagent. This conversion is achieved by treating methyltriphenylphosphonium bromide with ...
3-Methylpentane is a branched alkane with the molecular formula C 6 H 14. It is a structural isomer of hexane composed of a methyl group bonded to the third carbon atom in a pentane chain. It is of similar structure to the isomeric 2-methylpentane , which has the methyl group located on the second carbon of the pentane chain.
