2-Amino-1-(3-bromophenyl)ethanol hydrochloride | CAS 14615-28-2

An aryl amino-alcohol hydrochloride with a meta-brominated phenyl group and unspecified alcohol stereochemistry, requiring clear salt, positional-isomer and stereochemical definitions before evaluation for a proposed synthetic application.

CAS14615-28-2
Molecular formulaC8H11BrClNO

Product overview

This aryl amino-alcohol hydrochloride combines a meta-bromophenyl ring with adjacent alcohol and amino functions on a two-carbon side chain. The bromine is covalently bound to the aromatic ring, while chloride belongs to the acid-addition form. CAS 14615-28-2 leaves the alcohol-centre configuration unspecified. Projects requiring a particular R/S composition should therefore include a chiral criterion in the purchasing specification. For development screening, match the amino-alcohol connectivity, hydrochloride stoichiometry and stereochemical requirement to the intended structure, then agree the salt-content basis and relevant impurity methods.

Application context

For development work requiring an aryl amino alcohol, this hydrochloride combines a meta-bromophenyl group with adjacent alcohol and amino functions. Match that arrangement and salt form to the proposed route. The alcohol-bearing carbon is stereogenic, so projects requiring a defined enantiomer should specify the configuration and chiral method. State the intended synthetic role when requesting samples, together with salt-content and analytical requirements.

Chemistry and synthetic role

The hydrochloride contributes the chloride counterion; the aromatic bromine remains covalently attached. The benzylic alcohol carbon is stereogenic, but its configuration is not specified in the verified identity.

Quality review

Identify the hydrochloride basis

Confirm the acid-addition form and whether assay is reported as salt or free-base equivalent.

Keep stereochemistry explicit

If the route requires R or S material, request an independently defined stereochemical specification.

Confirm meta substitution

Identity methods should distinguish the 3-bromophenyl compound from ortho and para analogues.

Preparing a specification

Specify CAS, hydrochloride form and the 3-bromophenyl substitution pattern. State assay basis and identity method. If stereochemistry is material to the intended use, add the required configuration and analytical criterion rather than assuming it from this CAS.

Packaging and storage

Confirm packaging format, net weight and transport arrangements for the selected grade, quantity and destination. Agree storage and handling conditions using the actual supplied material’s SDS and label.

Documentation

Request a salt-specific COA and SDS plus structural identity data. Confirm whether counterion and stereochemical composition can be documented for the proposed material.

Procurement questions

Is this a single enantiomer?

The verified identity does not specify R or S. Batch composition requires separate evidence.

Does the formula describe a hydrobromide?

No. Bromine is attached to the aromatic ring; the acid-addition salt is a hydrochloride.

What should a development enquiry specify?

State the desired structural role, hydrochloride form and any enantiomeric-composition requirement for the selected chemistry.
