3-bromopropene (common name : allyl bromide ) is an organic-chemical compound from the group of alkyl halides .

Extraction and presentation

The synthesis of 3-bromopropene is possible on a laboratory and industrial scale in an S N 1 'reaction from allyl alcohol and hydrobromic acid . The OH group of the allyl alcohol is first protonated and, with the elimination of water, an allyl cation is formed , which then reacts with a bromide ion to form the product. The product can be isolated by extraction and purified by distillation .

Synthesis of 3-bromopropene

Alternatively, the compound can also be prepared via a halogen exchange reaction from allyl chloride and hydrobromic acid or sodium bromide in the presence of a copper and phase transfer catalyst.

properties

3-bromopropene is a colorless, slightly oily liquid with a characteristic sweetish, slightly pungent odor. In moist air it hydrolyzes very slowly to form hydrogen bromide and allyl alcohol. As an alkylating agent, it can cause lasting damage to the body and is therefore classified as toxic.

Safety-related parameters

3-bromopropene forms highly flammable vapor-air mixtures. The compound has a flash point of −1 ° C. The explosion range is between 4.3% by volume (215 g / m 3 ) as the lower explosion limit (LEL) and 7.3% by volume (370 g / m 3 ) as the upper explosion limit (UEL). The ignition temperature is 295 ° C. The substance therefore falls into temperature class T3.

use

In synthetic organic chemistry, 3-bromopropene is mostly used to introduce the allyl group, which is a frequently used protective group for alcohols and amines . The compound is a starting material in the synthesis of drugs such as methoxohexytal , nedocromil , secobarbital and thiamylal .
