Chemical Structure

4-Bromo[2.2]paracyclophane CAS 1908-61-8 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 4-Bromo[2.2]paracyclophane (C16H15Br) contains bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 287.19 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
