Description

Bicyclo[2.2.1]Heptane, 1-Bromo- (9Ci) CAS NO 13474-70-9 is a specialized brominated norbornane derivative, serving as a versatile and valuable building block in advanced organic synthesis. Its unique bridged bicyclic structure and reactive bromine substituent make it a critical intermediate for constructing complex molecular architectures with precise stereochemistry. This high-purity intermediate is essential for research and development chemists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors, where it is used to develop novel active ingredients and functional polymers.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key starting material or advanced intermediate in the synthesis of novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those requiring rigid, three-dimensional scaffolds.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the research and production of new-generation herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides that leverage its stable bicyclic core.
• Ligand and Catalyst Development: Serves as a precursor for creating specialized chiral ligands and organometallic catalysts used in asymmetric synthesis.
• Polymer & Material Science: Employed as a monomer or cross-linking agent to produce high-performance polymers with enhanced thermal stability and mechanical properties.
• Organic Synthesis Building Block: Utilized in Diels-Alder reactions, nucleophilic substitutions, and cross-coupling reactions to introduce the norbornane skeleton into target molecules.
• Fragrance & Flavor Chemistry: Acts as an intermediate for synthesizing complex odorants and flavor compounds with unique organoleptic profiles.
