4-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl bromide - Introduction

4-choro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl bromide is an organic compound with the chemical formula C8H6BrClF3.

Nature:
-Appearance: White crystalline solid
-Melting point: 50-52 ° C
-Boiling Point: 183-184 ° C
-Density: 1.8g/cm³
-Solubility: Soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and dimethyl sulfoxide, insoluble in water
-the main risk: irritant to the eyes, skin and respiratory system, for irritating substances

Use:
- 4-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl bromide is commonly used as a reagent in organic synthesis
-can be used as acyl transfer reagent and bromination reagent, commonly used in allylation reaction and substitution reaction
-There are also some applications in the field of pesticides and pharmaceuticals

Method:
4-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl bromide is generally prepared by the following steps:
1. First, 3-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid is reacted with trimethyl phosphite under alkaline conditions to produce trimethyl 3-(trifluoromethyl) benzoate.
2. Trimethyl 3-(trifluoromethyl) benzoate was then brominated with bromine solution to give trimethyl 4-bromo-3-(trifluoromethyl) benzoate.
3. Finally, trimethyl 4-bromo-3-(trifluoromethyl) benzoate is reduced with hydrogen bromide to produce trimethyl 4-chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl) benzoate. This intermediate is then oxidized with sodium hypochlorite and finally reacted with trifluoroacetic acid and hydrofluoric acid to give the final product, 4-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl bromide.

Safety Information:
When using 4-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl bromide, it is necessary to strictly follow the safety procedures, wear protective glasses and gloves, and avoid contact with skin and eyes. Use in a well-ventilated place, avoid inhalation or ingestion. In case of accidental contact or ingestion, the affected area should be cleaned immediately and medical help should be sought.
