Introduction | 3-bromopropionic acid, also known as β-bromopropionic acid. White patchy crystals. Soluble in water, alcohol, ether, chloroform, benzene. In alkaline solution hydrolysis to produce hydroxypropionic acid, corrosive. For organic synthesis. From the reaction of acrylonitrile and hydrogen bromide, Bromo Propionitrile is obtained by hydrolysis. |
Application | 3-bromopropionic acid is a widely used chemical intermediate. As a starting material can be synthesized Ester, acid halide, amide and other derivatives; Active group bromine can be a series of reactions, mainly used in pesticide, medicine and other fields. Such as pesticides of piroxobin grass, furazolidone and so on. |
Use | for organic synthesis |
production method | 3-bromopropionic acid is obtained by reacting acrylonitrile with hydrogen bromide to obtain bromopropionitrile and hydrolyzing it. Acrylonitrile was added to boiling hydrobromic acid, and the mixture was refluxed and reacted at 130 ° C. For 6H. The solid obtained by filtration was extracted with ethanol, and the crude product obtained by recovering ethanol was distilled under reduced pressure. 3-bromopropionic acid can also be produced in a yield of more than 40% by heating 2-cyanoethanol under reflux with 80% hydrobromic acid for 2H. |
