Description

2,2',4,5',6-Pentabromobiphenyl is a high-purity brominated aromatic compound, specifically a pentabrominated derivative of biphenyl. This product is valued for its role as a key intermediate and reference standard in advanced chemical synthesis and analytical research. It is primarily required by industries and research institutions focused on flame retardant development, environmental analysis, and specialized organic synthesis.

Application

• As a key intermediate in the research and development of advanced brominated flame retardants (BFRs).
• As a certified reference material (CRM) and analytical standard for environmental testing of persistent organic pollutants (POPs).
• In academic and industrial research studying the properties, synthesis, and degradation pathways of polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs).
• For use in method development and calibration in gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) laboratories.
• As a specialty building block in the synthesis of complex organic molecules for pharmaceutical or material science applications.
