Description

Ethyl trans-2 3-Dibromoacrylate 96 is a high-purity, halogenated acrylate ester primarily used as a versatile building block in advanced organic synthesis. This compound matters for its role as a key intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and specialty polymers, where its reactive dibromoacrylate moiety enables critical carbon-carbon bond formation. It is essential for R&D chemists and process development scientists in the fine chemical, pharmaceutical, and material science industries seeking to introduce functionalized acrylate structures into complex molecules.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a crucial precursor in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those requiring functionalized acrylate scaffolds.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of novel herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides, leveraging its reactivity to create complex molecular architectures.
• Polymer & Material Science: Acts as a monomer or cross-linking agent for specialty polymers, including adhesives, coatings, and resins with enhanced properties.
• Fine Chemical Production: Employed in multi-step organic synthesis for creating complex esters, acids, and other derivatives used in fragrances and flavors.
• Research & Development: A valuable reagent in academic and industrial R&D labs for methodology development and exploring new chemical reactions, such as Michael additions or cyclizations.
• Liquid Crystal & Electronic Materials: Potential use as an intermediate in the synthesis of components for liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and other electronic materials.

Quality Control

Our Ethyl trans-2 3-Dibromoacrylate 96 is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopy, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting the specifications are provided with each shipment and are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its sensitivity to strong acids and organic solvents, store separately from incompatible materials. The container should be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption.
