Isopropyl 2-bromo-2-methylpropanoate (CAS 51368-55-9) is a brominated ester appearing as a colourless to pale-yellow clear liquid. The tertiary α-bromo ester is a classic atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) initiator fragment, and the isopropyl ester modulates solubility and volatility relative to methyl and ethyl homologues.
