Allyl bromide

Summary

Allyl bromide (3-bromopropene) is an organic halide. It is an alkylating agent used in synthesis of polymers, pharmaceuticals,[2] synthetic perfumes[3] and other organic compounds. Physically, allyl bromide is a colorless liquid with an irritating and persistent smell, however, commercial samples are yellow or brown.[4] Allyl bromide is more reactive but more expensive than allyl chloride, and these considerations guide its use.[5]

Preparation edit

Allyl bromide is produced commercially from allyl alcohol and hydrobromic acid:[5]

CH2=CHCH2OH + HBr → CH2=CHCH2Br + H2O

It can also be prepared by the halogen-exchange reaction between allyl chloride and hydrobromic acid or by the allylic bromination of propene.[5]

Reactions and uses edit

Electrophilic properties edit

Allyl bromide is an electrophilic alkylating agent.[4] It reacts with nucleophiles, such as amines, carbanions, alkoxides, etc., to introduce the allyl group:

CH2=CHCH2Br + Nu− → CH2=CHCH2Nu + Br− (Nu− is a nucleophile)

It is used in the synthesis of compounds containing the allyl functionality, such as the pharmaceuticals methohexital, secobarbital and thiamylal.[2]

Preparation of Grignard reagent edit

Allyl bromide reacts with magnesium metal in dry ether to form allylmagnesium bromide, a Grignard reagent:[6]

CH2=CHCH2Br + Mg → CH2=CHCH2MgBr
