Description

2-Furancarbonyl Chloride, 3-Bromo- (9Ci) is a versatile and reactive halogenated furan derivative, serving as a critical building block in advanced organic synthesis. Its value lies in its bifunctional reactivity, where the acid chloride group enables facile amide or ester formation, and the bromine atom offers a handle for further cross-coupling or substitution reactions. This compound is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries developing novel active ingredients and functional materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key precursor in the synthesis of complex drug molecules, particularly those containing furan heterocycles for antiviral, antibacterial, or anticancer activity.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in creating novel fungicides, herbicides, and insecticides where the furan ring contributes to biological activity.
• Ligand and Catalyst Development: Serves as a starting material for synthesizing specialized ligands used in asymmetric catalysis and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs).
• Polymer and Material Science: Acts as a monomer or cross-linking agent for producing specialty polymers with unique thermal or electronic properties.
• Organic Synthesis Building Block: Employed in multi-step syntheses to introduce both the furan carbonyl and bromo functionalities for further functionalization via Suzuki, Stille, or other coupling reactions.
• Research and Development: A valuable reagent for academic and industrial R&D in medicinal chemistry and synthetic methodology development.

Quality Control

Our 2-Furancarbonyl Chloride, 3-Bromo- (9Ci) is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure high purity and consistency. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, confirming identity, purity, and impurity profiles to meet your specific R&D or production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent decomposition. Keep away from strong bases, oxidizing agents, and sources of ignition.
