Participants
| Role | Name | HCID | Charge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reactant | Hydrogen Bromide | HCID 260 | — |
| Reactant | 16-Hydroxyhexadecanoic acid | HCID 10466 | — |
| Solvent | Acetic Acid | HCID 176 | — |
| Product | 16-Bromohexadecanoic acid | HCID 620397 | 99% |
Reaction Steps
16-Bromohexadecanoic acid was prepared by refluxing for 48 hrs 5.0 gr (18.35 mmole) of 16-hydroxyhexadecanoic acid in 24 ml of 1:1 v/v mixture of HBr (48% aqueous solution) and glacial acetic acid. Upon cooling, crude product was solidified inside the reaction vessel. It was filtered out and washed with 3×100 ml of cold water. 6.1 gr (99% yield) of the desired product were obtained.
