Bromocyclopentane is a colorless to light yellow liquid at standard temperature and pressure.It has an aroma similar to camphor. It turns brown after a long time. Soluble in ethanol, ether, insoluble in water. Halocyclopentanes can be prepared by reacting the corresponding alcohols with thionyl halides, phosphorus trihalides or hydrohalic acids. | [Uses]
Bromocyclopentane is a precursor used in the preparation of cyclopentene and cyclopentanol. It is a fatty bromide, which is used as a solvent. It is used as an intermediate for the preparation of surfactant and pharmaceuticals and other organic compounds. It is also used in the production of the medicine cyclopentathiazide. | [Preparation]
Bromocyclopentane is synthesized by bromination of cyclopentanol: cyclopentanol is mixed with hydrobromic acid and heated to about 170°C refluxed for 6-8h. Then distilled with water steam, the oil layer is washed with 5% sodium carbonate, then dried, filtered, fractionated and collected 136-139°C fraction is the finished product. Another method is by the reaction of cyclopentanol and phosphorus tribromide: the cyclopentanol is cooled to 0 ℃, add the newly evaporated phosphorus tribromide drop by drop, add it all at 0-5 ℃, stir for 2h, and leave it at room temperature overnight. Add water and stratify, take the oil layer water distillation. Distillate stratification, the oil layer was washed with 10% sodium bicarbonate solution, dried with anhydrous calcium chloride, filtration, filtrate distillation, collect 134-141 ℃ fraction that is bromocyclopentane. | [Reactions]
Bromocyclopentane (22.0 g, 0.15 mol) was added to a soln of NaNO2 (18 g, 0.26 mol) in dry DMSO (100 mL) at 15 ℃ and the mixture was stirred at this temperature for 3 h. The mixture was poured into ice water (250 mL) and extracted with petroleum ether (bp 35-37 ℃; 4 × 50 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with H2O (4× 50 mL), dried (MgSO4), and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was distilled to give Nitrocyclopentane; yield: 9.9 g (58%); bp 62 ℃/8 Torr; nD/20 1.4538.
