Applications · 3 items

UsesBenzhydryl Bromide is used as a reagent in the synthesis of O-(triazolyl)methyl carbamates as a novel and potent class of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) inhibitors.

UsesBenzhydryl bromide is a halogenated building block. Benzhydryl group was preferred to the commoner benzyl to protect 2-nitrophenol in the Bartoli (vinyl Grignard) synthesis of 7-hydroxyindole. Protection was by reaction with the phenol in the presence of potassium carbonate in acetone; deprotection of the indole was by hydrogenolysis.

General DescriptionBromodiphenylmethane is a white crystalline solid. Melting point 113°F. A lachrymator. In the presence of moisture corrosive to tissue and most metals.
