Electrophilic Alkylating Agent​ C₈H₈BrCl

p-Chlorophenethyl bromide​ CAS 6529-53-9 is a halogenated organic compound belonging to the class of arylalkyl bromides. It consists of a phenethyl group (a benzene ring with a two-carbon ethylene spacer) substituted with a chlorine atom at the paraposition and a bromine atom on the terminal carbon of the ethylene chain. This structure makes it a valuable electrophilic alkylating agent​ and a versatile bifunctional building block​ in synthetic organic chemistry.
