Application

1-Bromopinacolone is the suitable reagent for the synthesis of a photolabile azido derivative of the kaurene oxidase inhibitor 1-(4- chlorophenyl)4,4-dimethyl-2-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl) pentan-3-ol (paclobutrazol). It may be used as reagent in the synthesis of 2-t-butyl-6-benzoylimidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine.

General description

1-Bromopinacolone is an α-bromoketone-aldehyde. Coupling of 1-bromopinacolone with various aldehyde electrophiles catalyzed by SmI2 has been reported. It acts as reversible competitive inhibitor for acetylcholinesterase, during hydrolysis of acetylcholine.

Highly substituted, very hindered enones were synthesized using a two-step procedure that utilizes a diiodosamarium-promoted Reformatsky-type coupling and dehydration using Martin sulfurane. Both alpha-chloro- and alpha-bromoketones were coupled with a variety of carbonyl nucleophiles to form the intermediate beta-hydroxyketones, occurring

1-Bromo-2-[14C]pinacolone, (CH3)3C14COCH2Br [( 14C]BrPin), was prepared from [1-14C]acetyl chloride and tert-butylmagnesium chloride with cuprous chloride catalyst, followed by bromination. It was examined as an active-site directed label for acetylcholinesterase (acetylcholine acetylhydrolase, EC 3.1.1.7) (AcChE). AcChE, isolated from Torpedo nobiliana, has
