Description

(Z)-1-Bromohex-3-Ene is a high-purity, unsaturated bromoalkene that serves as a versatile and reactive building block in advanced organic synthesis. Its value lies in its ability to introduce both a bromine atom and a carbon-carbon double bond in a stereodefined (Z)-configuration, enabling precise molecular construction. This compound is essential for researchers and process chemists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty materials industries who require reliable, high-quality intermediates for coupling reactions, polymer synthesis, and the development of complex bioactive molecules.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key precursor in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and complex drug candidates via cross-coupling reactions like Suzuki, Negishi, or Heck couplings.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of advanced crop protection agents, herbicides, and fungicides that require specific alkene geometries.
• Specialty Polymer & Material Science: Acts as a functional monomer or cross-linking agent for creating polymers with tailored properties, such as liquid crystals or conductive materials.
• Organic Synthesis & Research: A fundamental reagent for constructing complex organic frameworks in academic and industrial R&D laboratories, particularly for carbon-carbon bond formation.
• Flavor & Fragrance Industry: Employed in the synthesis of specific aroma chemicals and intermediates that rely on defined alkene structures.
• Ligand & Catalyst Development: Serves as a starting material for synthesizing novel ligands and organometallic catalysts used in asymmetric synthesis.

Quality Control

Our (Z)-1-Bromohex-3-Ene is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC, HPLC, and NMR, to verify identity, purity, and isomeric composition. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its highly volatile and light-sensitive nature, containers should be kept tightly sealed and away from heat, sparks, and open flame. For long-term storage, consider using an inert atmosphere to maintain optimal stability.
