BrCH2CH29CH2Br

BrCH2CH29CH2Br is a chemical compound, specifically an organobromine compound. Its systematic name indicates a linear chain of eleven carbon atoms (undecane) where a bromine atom is attached to the first carbon (position 1) and another bromine atom is attached to the eleventh carbon (position 11). Therefore, it is 1,11-dibromoundecane.

This compound is a type of dihaloalkane, meaning it contains two halogen atoms, in this case, bromine, attached to an alkane backbone. Dihaloalkanes can undergo various chemical reactions, often involving the displacement of the halogen atoms by other functional groups or the formation of cyclic compounds.

1,11-Dibromoundecane can be synthesized through several organic synthesis routes. Common methods might involve the bromination of undecane or reactions starting from a diol precursor. The physical properties, such as melting point and boiling point, are dependent on the molecular structure. As a relatively long-chain alkane derivative, it is expected to be a solid or a high-boiling liquid at room temperature and exhibit low solubility in water but good solubility in organic solvents.

Applications for such compounds often lie in their use as building blocks in organic synthesis. The two reactive bromine atoms can be utilized to introduce longer chains into molecules, create polymers, or form cyclic structures through intramolecular reactions. It can also serve as a precursor for other functionalized undecane derivatives.
