Ethyl 2-Bromo Propionate

The synthesis of ethyl 2-bromopropionate and its production method are related to the technological domain of chemical engineering. The acylating chlorination reaction for sulfoxide chloride, propionic acid, red phosphorus, and dry bromine is the first step in the preparation of 2-bromopropionyl chloride. Next, the 2-bromopropionyl chloride is used as a raw material in the esterification reaction with anhydrous ethanol to yield ethyl 2-bromopropionate, which is filtered and distilled.

The production technology disclosed by the invention has the following advantageous effects: the prepared ethyl 2-bromopropionate is good in using effect, safe and reliable; the preparation is easy and convenient; there is no pollution; raw materials are easily available; the equipment investment is small; the purity is high; and the operation is convenient.
