General description
4-Chlorobenzyl bromide undergoes carbonylation in the presence of dimer of chloro(1,5-cyclooctadiene)rhodium(I) to yield the corresponding phenylacetic acid. It can be synthesized by reacting 4-chlorobenzyl alcohol with bromodimethylsulfonium bromide (BDMS) It can also be synthesized by refluxing a mixture of 4-chlorobenzaldehyde, chlorotrimethylsilane, 1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane and lithium bromide.
Application
4-Chlorobenzyl bromide may be used to synthesize:
- 1-(4-chlorobenzyl)-2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl-methyl)-1H-benzimidazole dihydrochloride
- 1-[1-[2-[(4-chlorobenzyl)thio]phenyl]vinyl]-1H-imidazole
- 6-[4-(4-chlorobenzyl)piperazinyl]chromane
- N,N′-bis(4-chlorobenzyl)piperazine
- N-(4-chlorobenzyl)piperazine
