4-Bromophenylacetic acid, also known as p-bromophenylacetic acid, is an organic compound. It is a derivative of phenylacetic acid containing a bromine atom in the para position.
Preparation
4-Bromophenylacetic acid may be prepared by the addition of a bromine atom to phenylacetic acid through electrophilic aromatic substitution. It was first prepared in the laboratory by treatment of phenylacetic acid with bromine and mercuric oxide; a mixture of the 2- and 4- isomers is made, and the 4- isomer is isolated by fractional crystallization.[1]
It can also be made by condensing 4-bromobenzylbromide with sodium cyanide in ethanol, and the hydrolising the nitrile with sodium hydroxide.[2]
Reactions
Methyl 2-(4-bromophenyl)acetate is made from 4-bromophenylacetic acid by refluxing it with methanol acidified with sulfuric acid.[3]
An ethyl ester can be made in an analogous way.[4]
A hydrazone derivative, 2-(4-bromophenyl)acetohydrazide, is made by refluxing the methyl ester with hydrazine.[3] Further hydrazone derivatives of 4-bromophenylacetic acid are made by condensing the simple hydrazone with aldehydes, forming a double bond with the second nitrogen.[3] At least 19 of these hydrazones are known.[3]
4-Bromophenylacetic acid is a chemical that can be purchased.[5]
Plant protoplasts conjugate aspartic acid with 4-bromophenylacetic acid to form 4-bromophenylacetyl-L-aspartic acid.[2]
4-Bromophenylacetic acid reacts with sodium tetraphenylborate to form felbinac which can be further converted to xenbucin.[4]
Properties
The ionic conductance has been measured.[6]
