2,5-dibromo-4-methylaniline; CAS No.: 140373-62-2;2,5-dibromo-4-methylaniline. PROPERTIES: 2,5-dibromo-4-methylaniline is a brominated and methylated aromatic amine with molecular formula C7H8Br2N. It typically exists as a colorless to pale yellow crystalline solid with a melting point of approximately 65-70 C. The compound has limited water solubility but dissolves in organic solvents like ethanol or acetone. It exhibits moderate thermal stability but may decompose when exposed to high temperatures or strong oxidizing agents, releasing toxic bromine vapors. 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 molecules. The dibromo substituents provide sites for cross-coupling reactions to form biaryl structures, while the methyl and amine groups offer additional functionality for further elaboration (The Journal of Organic Chemistry). In pharmaceutical development, 2,5-dibromo-4-methylaniline contributes to the synthesis of antimicrobial and anticancer agents where the halogenated aromatic scaffold enhances binding to biological targets (Journal of Medicinal Chemistry). The compound also finds application in materials science as a building block for organic electronics, where its electron-withdrawing bromine atoms modulate the electronic properties of derived materials (Advanced Materials).
