2-Bromopropionyl bromide Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Light yellow liquid

Uses

2-Bromopropionyl bromide is used in the preparation of cellulose macroinitiator through direct acylation of cellulose in ionic liquid 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride. It is also used to prepare 3-(2-bromopropionyl)-2-oxazolidone derivatives and bromoester terminated poly(3-hexylthiophene). Further, it is used as a macroinitiator for atom transfer radical polymerization of acrylates.

Uses

2-Bromopropionyl bromide has been used in the synthesis of:

• cellulose macroinitiator via direct acylation of cellulose in ionic liquid 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride
• 3-(2-bromopropionyl)-2-oxazolidone derivatives
• bromoester terminated poly(3-hexylthiophene), used as macroinitiator for atom transfer radical polymerization of acrylates.
