Description

Methyl 3-Bromo-6-Fluoro-2-Methoxybenzoate CAS NO 1809157-87-6 is a high-purity, multi-functional benzoate ester derivative, serving as a critical building block in advanced organic synthesis. Its value lies in the strategic placement of bromo and fluoro substituents on the aromatic ring, which enables precise molecular modifications and the introduction of key pharmacophores. This compound is essential for research chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries, particularly for the synthesis of complex active ingredients and novel chemical entities.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key precursor in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), especially those targeting central nervous system (CNS) disorders and anti-inflammatory applications.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of novel herbicides and fungicides, where the fluorine atom enhances biological activity and metabolic stability.
• Material Science Research: Serves as a monomer or functionalizing agent in the creation of specialty polymers and liquid crystals.
• Chemical Biology: Employed as a probe or labeling reagent due to the reactivity of the bromine atom for further cross-coupling reactions.
• Custom Synthesis & Contract Manufacturing: A vital starting material for custom synthesis projects requiring specific halogenated aromatic frameworks.
