2-Bromo-2-methylpropanoyl chloride is a bifunctional acyl chloride bearing both a reactive acid chloride and a tertiary alkyl bromide, appearing as a colorless to light-yellow liquid. Its dual functionality makes it valuable as an acylating agent and as a macroinitiator for atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP).
