Allyl alcohol and allyl bromide are two important precursors that are somewhat under-represented in the hobby chemistry community. And since I need the latter chemical to synthesize an ultra-potent caffeine analog in an upcoming video, I'll be showing how to make both in this video!

UPDATE: I don't know how I screwed this up, but the final yield was actually more like 88% based on the amount of allyl cyclohexylpropionate used. 100mL of this ester is 0.483 moles, so a 100% yield of allyl bromide would've been 0.483 moles, or 58.4 grams (I got just over 50g). Sorry for the mix up, I must've been looking at the yield based on hydrobromic acid, which wasn't the limiting reagent!

WARNING: allyl alcohol is toxic and highly irritating to the eyes and respiratory track, and allyl bromide is carcinogenic. Caution must be taken when handling these chemicals and their precursors (sulfuric acid, hydrobromic acid, and sodium hydroxide are all highly corrosive).
