2-Bromooctanoic acid ethyl ester - Introduction
Ethyl 2-bromooctanoate, chemical formula C10H19BrO2, is an organic compound. The following is a description of its nature, use, preparation and safety information:
Nature:
Ethyl 2-bromooctanoate is a colorless liquid with low density. It has a melting point of -52°C and a boiling point of 233-235°C. Its main feature is that it contains a 2-bromooctanoic acid group and an acetic acid group.
Use:
Ethyl 2-bromooctanoate has a wide range of applications in organic synthesis. It is frequently used as a reagent in organic synthesis reactions, for example in esterification, etherification and substitution reactions. It can also be used to prepare compounds such as fragrances, surfactants and pesticides.
Preparation Method:
Ethyl 2-bromooctanoate is usually prepared by reacting 2-bromooctanoic acid with ethanol. This reaction can be carried out under acidic conditions, using sulfuric acid and other catalysts to promote the esterification reaction, the reaction to produce Ethyl 2-bromooctanoate and water.
Safety Information:
Ethyl 2-bromooctanoate is a flammable liquid and should be avoided from open flames and high temperatures. During operation, good ventilation measures should be taken to avoid inhalation of its vapor. After contact with skin or eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical help. During storage and handling, care should be taken to prevent leakage and to avoid contact with incompatible substances.
