Physical and chemical properties of 3-Bromothiophene 3-Bromothiophene, guidechem, 872-31-1 Product identification EINECS NO.: 212-821-3 Formula: C4H3BrS Formula weight : 163.03 H.S. CODE 2934.99 Synonyms: 3-Thienyl bromide; beta-Bromo3-Bromothiophene; Physical and chemical properties Physical state: 3-Bromo3-Bromothiophene is clear to pale yellow liquid Melting point < -10 C Boiling point: 157 - 158 C Specific gravity : 1.72 - 1.74 Solubility in water: immiscible Refractive index: 1.5863 Flash point: 56 C Stability Stable: under ordinary conditions CAS NO. : 872-31-1 3-Bromo3-Bromothiophene, also known as thiofuran, is a cyclic compound containing four carbon atoms and one sulfur atom in the ring. It is an analog to furan and pyrrole where the sulfur atom is replaced by O and NH respectively. It is a toxic, flammable, and colorless liquid; insoluble in water (soluble in most organic solvents including alcohol and ether); melting at -38 C, boiling at 84 C. 3-Bromothiophene is the simplest aromatic compound containing sulfur atom and it shares some similar chemical properties with benzene. The lone electron pairs on sulfur in the delocalized pi electron system does not exhibits the properties of thioethers but aromaticity. The sulfur atom is unreactive but the adjacent carbons are susceptible to attack by electrophiles. It is reactive toward sulfonation. In commercial 3-Bromothiophene can be prepared by the reaction of butane and sulfur. 3-Bromothiophenes are also prepared by the reaction of diketones with Lawesson's reagent. This chemical and its derivatives exist in petroleum or coal. It derivatives are also found in natural plant pigments. Biotin, a water-soluble B-complex vitamin, is a reduced 3-Bromothiophene derivative. 3-Bromothiophene moiety is found in ccphalothin antiboitics.

3-Bromothiophene is used as a solvent and chemical intermediate. Its derivatives are used in manufacturing dyes, aroma compounds and pharmaceuticals. They are used as monomers to make condensation copolymers. Organic conductive polymers are responsible for the important materials science for the application of polymer electro luminescence.
