ETHYL DIBROMOACETATE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

clear colorless to slighlty brown liquid

Uses

Ethyl dibromoacetate can be used to produce diphenoxy-acetic acid ethyl ester. It is used in organic synthesis.

Purification Methods

Wash the ester briefly with conc aqueous NaHCO3, then with aqueous CaCl2. Dry it with CaSO4 and distil it under reduced pressure. [Hornyak & Amis J Am Chem Soc 79 2079 1957, Beilstein 2 H 219, 2 I 97, 2 III 484, 2 IV 533.]
