3-bromo-2-chloro-6-fluorotoluene; CAS No.: 203302-92-5;3-bromo-2-chloro-6-fluorotoluene. PROPERTIES: 3-bromo-2-chloro-6-fluorotoluene is a brominated, chlorinated, and fluorinated aromatic compound with molecular formula C7H6BrClF. It typically exists as a colorless liquid with a boiling point around 125-130 C. The compound has limited water solubility but dissolves well in organic solvents like chloroform or carbon tetrachloride. It exhibits moderate thermal stability but may decompose when exposed to high temperatures or strong bases, releasing toxic halogen-containing fumes. Proper storage involves keeping it in tightly sealed containers below 25 C, protected from light and moisture. APPLICATIONS: In organic synthesis, this compound serves as a versatile intermediate for creating complex aromatic systems. The bromo, chloro, and fluoro substituents provide multiple sites for cross-coupling and nucleophilic substitution reactions, while the methyl group offers steric protection (The Journal of Organic Chemistry). In pharmaceutical development, 3-bromo-2-chloro-6-fluorotoluene contributes to the synthesis of antimicrobial agents where the halogenated aromatic scaffold enhances binding to microbial targets (Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy). The compound also finds application in materials science as a building block for organic electronics, where its electron-deficient aromatic core modulates the electronic properties of derived materials (Advanced Materials).
