Overview | bromoisooctane is an organic intermediate useful in the preparation of isooctanethiol. |
purpose | commonly used Reagents for Organic Synthesis . For the dissolution of poorly soluble polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. This compound may be added to the benzene ring to increase its solubility. |
production method | is derived from the bromination of isooctyl alcohol. First, isooctyl alcohol and red phosphorus were mixed, then liquid bromine was slowly added, and the mixture was refluxed for 4h after the addition. After the reaction was completed, water was added to wash off the acidity, dried, and distilled under reduced pressure to obtain crude product, the product is washed with water until neutral, dried by calcium chloride and filtered. |
