3-Bromofuran Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties Colorless to light yellow liqui

Uses 3-Bromofuran is heterocyclic building block used in organic synthesis. 3-Bromofuran is one of the volatile metabolites discussed in studies for detecting and discriminating diseases of onion.

Purification Methods Purify 3-bromofuran by two steam distillations and dry it over fresh CaO. It can be dried over Na metal (no obvious reaction) and fractionated. It is not very soluble in H2O but is soluble in organic solvents. When freshly distilled, it is a clear oil, but darkens on standing and eventually resinifies. It can be stored for long periods by covering the oil with an alkaline solution of hydroquinone and is redistilled when required. It forms a characteristic maleic anhydride adduct, m 131.5-132o.
