|  |  | 1-Bromo-2-chloroethane Usage And Synthesis | 
 | Chemical Properties | Clear colorless to slightly yellow liquid |  | Uses | 1-Bromo-2-chloroethane was used in regio- and diastereoselective synthesis of 2-alkylidenetetrahydrofurans. 1-Bromo-2-chloroethane is used as a solvent and as an intermediate for organic synthesis. It is used as a as fumigant. |  | Definition | ChEBI: A bromoalkane that is bromoethane substituted by a chloro group at position 2. |  | General Description | Clear colorless liquid with a sweet chloroform-like odor. |  | Air & Water Reactions | Slightly water soluble. |  | Reactivity Profile | 1-Bromo-2-chloroethane is incompatible with strong bases, strong oxidizing agents and magnesium . |  | Fire Hazard | Literature sources indicate that 1-Bromo-2-chloroethane is nonflammable. |  | Purification Methods | Wash it with conc H2SO4, water, 10% Na2CO3 solution, and again with water, then dry with CaCl2 and fractionally distil before use.
