| General Description | 1-Bromopentane undergoes phase transfer catalysed alkylation reaction with 2′-hydroxy acetophenone using tetrabutyl ammonium bromide as catalyst. |
| Safety Profile | Moderately toxic byintraperitoneal route. Slightly toxic by inhalation. Whenheated to decomposition it emits toxic vapors of Br–. |
| Purification Methods | Wash the bromide with conc H2SO4, then water, 10% Na2CO3 solution, again with water, dry with CaCl2 or K2CO3, and fractionally distil it just before use. [Beilstein 1 IV 312.] |
