Description

1-Bromo-4-(Cyclohexylmethyl)Benzene is a high-purity, advanced organic intermediate featuring a brominated aromatic ring linked to a cyclohexylmethyl group. This specific molecular architecture makes it a valuable synthon for constructing complex molecules in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. It is primarily sought after by R&D chemists and process development scientists working on new active ingredients. The compound, identified by CAS number 1785619-14-8, is essential for introducing lipophilic and sterically defined motifs into target structures.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key building block in the synthesis of novel drug candidates, particularly for central nervous system (CNS) and anti-inflammatory targets.
• Agrochemical Research: Used in developing new herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides where the cyclohexylmethyl moiety enhances bioavailability and activity.
• Ligand & Catalyst Development: Serves as a precursor for creating specialized phosphine or N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands in transition metal catalysis.
• Material Science: Intermediate for synthesizing liquid crystals or organic semiconductors requiring specific aromatic-aliphatic hybrid structures.
• Cross-Coupling Reactions: The bromoaryl group makes it an excellent substrate for Suzuki, Heck, and other palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions.
• Custom Synthesis & Contract Manufacturing: Supplied to CDMOs for the production of bespoke compounds for client-specific research programs.
