3-bromopropine is a chemical compound of bromine from the group of unsaturated halogenated hydrocarbons with a C≡C triple bond.

Extraction and presentation

The compound can be obtained by reacting propargyl alcohol with phosphorus tribromide .

properties

3-bromopropine is a volatile, colorless to yellowish liquid with a pungent odor, which is practically insoluble in water. It decomposes when heated, which can produce carbon monoxide , carbon dioxide and hydrogen bromide .

It can react with aldehydes with a Barbier reaction to form alkyne alcohols:

Barber reaction

use

3-Bromopropine was used in the 1960s to improve the effects of chloropicrine and methyl bromide . The mixture of 60% methyl bromide, 30% chloropicrin and 9% 3-bromopropine was marketed under the name Trizone until 1968 . From 2000 the use as a fumigant and substitute for methyl bromide was examined again in the USA. It is also an intermediate for the production of other chemical compounds such as allenyl magnesium bromide .

safety instructions

The vapors of 3-bromopropine can form an explosive mixture with air ( flash point 18 ° C, ignition temperature 324 ° C). The connection is unstable and requires a stabilizer for safe handling. It is usually sold dissolved in toluene or xylene .
