Description

5-Bromo-2-Fluorobenzamide is a high-purity, versatile fluorinated aromatic building block essential for advanced organic synthesis. Its unique halogenated structure makes it a critical intermediate for constructing complex molecules in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. This compound is primarily sought by R&D chemists and process development scientists working on active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), crop protection agents, and specialty materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key synthon in the development of novel drug candidates, particularly for kinase inhibitors and central nervous system (CNS) active compounds.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the research and production of advanced herbicides, fungicides, and pesticides, leveraging the fluorine and bromine substituents for bioactivity.
• Material Science Research: Serves as a precursor for liquid crystals, organic semiconductors, and other functional fluorinated polymers.
• Chemical Biology & Proteomics: Employed as a building block for designing molecular probes, enzyme inhibitors, and labeled compounds for biochemical studies.
• Custom Synthesis & Contract Manufacturing: Supplied to CDMOs (Contract Development and Manufacturing Organizations) for custom synthesis projects requiring specific halogenated benzamide derivatives.

Quality Control

Our 5-Bromo-2-Fluorobenzamide is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and MS, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided with every shipment. We support compliance with REACH and other global regulatory frameworks.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
