 |  | 1-Bromopentane Usage And Synthesis |  
 | Chemical Properties | liquid |  | Uses | 1-Bromopentane is a chemical reagent used in a multitude of organic syntheses. It is used iron-catalyzed alkylations of aromatic Grignard reagents via cross coupling. It is used in the synthesis of α,
γ-diketo acids as reversible inhibitors of Hepatitis C virus NS5b RNA polymerase. |  | Uses | 1-Bromopentane is used in a multitude of organic synthesis. It is used in iron-catalyzed alkylations of aromatic Grignard reagents via cross coupling. |  | Synthesis Reference(s) | Journal of the American Chemical Society, 86, p. 5037, 1964 DOI: 10.1021/ja01076a084 |  | General Description | 1-Bromopentane undergoes phase transfer catalysed alkylation reaction with 2′-hydroxy acetophenone using tetrabutyl ammonium bromide as catalyst. |  | Safety Profile | Moderately toxic byintraperitoneal route. Slightly toxic by inhalation. Whenheated to decomposition it emits toxic vapors of Br-. |  | Purification Methods | Wash the bromide with conc H2SO4, then water, 10% Na2CO3 solution, again with water, dry with CaCl2 or K2CO3, and fractionally distil it just before use.
