14-bromotetradecan-1-ol; CAS No.: 72995-94-9; 14-bromotetradecan-1-ol. PROPERTIES: This bromo-substituted long-chain alcohol features molecular formula C??H??BrO with molecular weight 292.29 g/mol. It generally appears as a white crystalline powder. Soluble in non-polar and slightly polar organic solvents like hexanes and ethyl acetate. Melting point approximately 40-45 C. Exhibits IR absorption for hydroxyl groups (~3300 cm??) and C-Br groups (~600-500 cm??). Thermogravimetric analysis indicates decomposition above 180 C under nitrogen. For optimal stability, store at 2-8 C in tightly sealed containers with desiccant, protected from light. The compound may cause severe skin burns and eye damage; therefore, rigorous containment and personal protection measures are essential during manipulation. APPLICATIONS: As a bromo-substituted long-chain alcohol, 14-bromotetradecan-1-ol is predominantly utilized in the synthesis of surfactants and detergents. It serves as a key intermediate in constructing non-ionic surfactants, where the bromo substituent provides valuable sites for further functionalization and the long-chain alcohol provides surfactant properties as demonstrated in colloid chemistry research (Langmuir). Additionally, the compound participates in the development of antimicrobial agents, where its long-chain alcohol structure disrupts microbial cell membranes (Journal of Medicinal Chemistry). In materials science, it functions as a monomer for preparing polyurethane foams with enhanced thermal stability, where the bromo substituent contributes to improved flame retardancy and mechanical properties (Polymer International).
