alfa-Bromoisovalericacid Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

The dry bromine and phosphorus trichloride are mixed with dry 4-methylvaleric acid, heated to 80-85°C, reacted for 8-15 hours, heated to 100-105°C, and kept for another 2 hours. The reaction mixture was fractionally distilled, and 125-131°C (1.6kPa) fractions were collected to obtain 2-bromo-4-methylpentanoic acid with a yield of 63%-66%.

Uses

Organic synthesis intermediate.
