11-Sulfanylundecyl 2-bromo-2-methylpropanoate

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: Mercaptoundecyl bromoisobutyrate was synthesized through the reaction of bromoisobutyryl bromide and 11-mercapto-1-undecanol using a method published previously. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): 4.15 (t, J=6.9 Hz, 2H, OCH2), 2.51 (q, J=7.5 Hz, 2H, SCH2), 1.92 (s, 6H, CH3), 1.57-1.72 (m, 4H, CH2), and 1.24-1.40 (m, 16H, CH2).
