TCI B6440 1-Bromo-2,2-dimethylpropane (neopentyl bromide, CAS 630-17-1) is a sterically hindered alkyl bromide used as a non-heterocyclic building block. It is commonly applied to install a neopentyl group onto nucleophiles and to prepare the corresponding organometallic reagents. Its hindered structure also makes it a classic substrate for studying steric effects in nucleophilic substitution. The product is flammable, so handle it in a fume hood away from ignition sources and store it tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated area.
