4-Bromobenzocyclobutene Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

colorless or light yellow liquid

Uses

4-Bromobenzocyclobutene is used in organic synthesis. It is also used in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals.

Reactions

The bromine atom in 4-bromobenzocyclobutene is highly reactive and can undergo various chemical reactions, such as substitution, elimination, and coupling reactions.

Materials Uses

A low curing temperature (210 °C), low water absorption, rapid curing, and low viscosity make dry-etchable BCB the material of choice for a variety of applications in gallium arsenide integrated circuits. Its low dielectric constant, loss, and moisture uptake, and its high compatibility with copper make BCB highly suitable for integrating passive components such as filters and op amps (operational amplifiers).

Synthesis

694-87-1

1073-39-8

The general procedure for the synthesis of 4-bromobenzocyclobutene from benzocyclobutene is as follows: first, α-chloro-o-xylene 1 is subjected to a pyrolysis reaction at about 800 °C and 0.5 mbar to produce benzocyclobutene 2 in 45% yield. Subsequently, benzocyclobutene 2 was dissolved in acetic acid and reacted with a mixture of bromine and iodine at room temperature for selective bromination to give 4-bromobenzocyclobutene 3. 3 was dissolved in toluene and a slightly molar excess of 1,4-dihydro-1,4-epoxynaphthalene 4 was added and reacted for 20 hr at 220° C. to give the Diels-Alder addition product 5 as a pure inner/outer in 80% yield mixture, which was a colorless crystalline substance. -yl)-5,12-dihydroanthracene 7. After recrystallization of compound 7 with o-dichlorobenzene, the dehydrogenation reaction was carried out by treatment with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-p-benzoquinone (DDQ) in boiling o-xylene. After repeated vacuum sublimation purification, orange-red crystals of 2-(anthracen-2-yl)tetraphenyl 8 were finally obtained in 75% yield. All intermediates were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Compound 8 was characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy.
