2,2'-Bis(bromomethyl)-1,1'-biphenyl

Product Information

2,2'-Bis(bromomethyl)-1,1'-biphenyl is the verified identity for CAS 38274-14-5 and molecular formula C14H12Br2. PubChem resolves the CAS to the single record CID 251962, with molecular weight 340.05. The corresponding SMILES is C1=CC=C(C(=C1)CBr)C2=CC=CC=C2CBr, and the structure has InChIKey VDXGURZGBXUKES-UHFFFAOYSA-N. No ionic fragment or stereochemical designation accompanies the official graph.

The parent biphenyl system contains two benzene rings joined through their respective position 1 atoms. Each ring bears one bromomethyl group at position 2, directly beside the inter-ring bond, producing the paired 2,2' locants. Each bromomethyl unit contributes a carbon bonded to bromine rather than bromine attached directly to an aromatic carbon. The fourteen-carbon formula comprises twelve aromatic ring carbons and two methylene carbons. Preserving both primes in the name makes the two-ring assignment explicit and separates this identity from other bis(bromomethyl)biphenyl positional patterns.

For a precisely scoped Rlavie inquiry, provide the full biphenyl name, CAS 38274-14-5, the requested quantity, and a MOL or SDF file. Rlavie can compare that file with CID 251962, the verified SMILES, and InChIKey VDXGURZGBXUKES-UHFFFAOYSA-N before reviewing request-specific information. The graph should show one ortho bromomethyl group on each phenyl ring; a formula-only request would not distinguish that pattern from alternatives placing both groups on one ring or at other locants. Retaining the CAS and structure identifiers together supplies an unambiguous record reference.
