tert-Butyl bromide (also referred to as 2-bromo-2-methylpropane) is an organic compound with the formula Me 3 CBr (Me = methyl). The molecule features a tert-butyl group attached to a bromide substituent. This organobromine compound is used as a standard reagent in synthetic organic chemistry. It is a colorless liquid.
For example, treating 2-Bromo-2-methyl butane with sodium ethoxide in ethanol produces the Zaytsev product with moderate selectivity. [9] Due to steric interactions, a bulky base – such as potassium tert-butoxide, triethylamine, or 2,6-lutidine – cannot readily abstract the proton that would lead to the Zaytsev product. In these situations ...
2-Bromopentane [1] (chiral) 3-Bromopentane; There are four isomers of monobromopentane based on 2-methylbutane: 1-Bromo-2-methylbutane (chiral) 1-Bromo-3-methylbutane; 2-Bromo-2-methylbutane; 2-Bromo-3-methylbutane (chiral) 2,2-Dimethylpropane has only one monobrominated derivative, 1-bromo-2,2-dimethylpropane, also known as neopentyl bromide.

2-Bromobutane is an isomer of 1-bromobutane. Both compounds share the molecular formula C 4 H 9 Br. 2-Bromobutane is also known as sec-butyl bromide or methylethylbromomethane. Because it contains bromine, a halogen, it is part of a larger class of compounds known as alkyl halides. It is a colorless liquid with a pleasant odor.
2-Bromopentane is a bromoalkane and isomer of bromopentane. It is a colorless liquid. 2-Bromopentane is chiral and thus can be obtained as either of two stereoisomers designated as ( R )-2-bromopentane and ( S )-2-bromopentane, or as a racemic 1:1 mixture of the two enantiomers .
In accordance with an E2 elimination the reaction with t-butyl chloride results in a KIE of 2.3. The methyl chloride reaction (only S N 2 possible) on the other hand has a KIE of 0.85 consistent with a S N 2 reaction because in this reaction type the C-H bonds tighten in the transition state. The KIE's for the ethyl (0.99) and isopropyl (1.72 ...
2 Li + C 4 H 9 X → C 4 H 9 Li + LiX where X = Cl, Br. The lithium for this reaction contains 1-3% sodium. When bromobutane is the precursor, the product is a homogeneous solution, consisting of a mixed cluster containing both LiBr and LiBu. 1-Fluorobutane can be obtained by reacting 1-bromobutane with potassium fluoride in ethylene glycol.

CH 2 Cl-CH 2 Cl → CH 2 =CHCl + HCl. The resulting HCl can be reused in oxychlorination reaction. Thermally induced dehydrofluorinations are employed in the production of fluoroolefins and hydrofluoroolefins. One example is the preparation of 1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropene from 1,1,2,3,3,3-hexafluoropropane: CF 2 HCH(F)CF 3 → CHF=C(F)CF 3 + HF
