Description
1-Bromo-3-chloropropane is a halogenated alkane compound containing one bromine atom and one chlorine atom in its structure. Due to the high electronegativity of halogens, the molecule of 1-Bromo-3-chloropropane is highly electrophilic and is easily attacked by electrophilic reagents such as nucleophilic reagents, Lewis acid, etc., which undergoes nucleophilic substitution reactions. The compound is relatively stable at room temperature, but is susceptible to elimination reactions at high temperatures or in the presence of strong acids or bases. In addition, prolonged exposure to air should be avoided because 1-Bromo-3-chloropropane molecules contain halogen atoms that are susceptible to reaction by oxygen and moisture in the air to produce products such as alcohols and aldehydes. 1-bromo-3-chloropropane appears as a colorless liquid. Insoluble in water and denser than water. May be toxic by inhalation, ingestion or skin absorption. Used to make pharmaceuticals and other chemicals.
