2-Bromoethyl acrylate Usage And Synthesis

Uses

2-Bromoethyl acrylate is utilized in curable and reactive polymers due to the presence of reactive bromine. It is also used in the synthesis of other monomers.

General Description

Colorless liquid.

Air & Water Reactions

Insoluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

A brominated acylic acid ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides.

Health Hazard

ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: 2-BROMOETHYL ACRYLATE may be irritating to tissues.

Fire Hazard

Flash point data for 2-BROMOETHYL ACRYLATE are not available. 2-BROMOETHYL ACRYLATE is probably combustible.

Chemical Reactivity

Light and heat sensitive Incompatible with strong oxidizing agents, polymerizing agents and peroxides.
