Description

1,4-Dibromo-2-Butenyl Acetate is a halogenated organic ester that serves as a versatile and reactive chemical intermediate. Its value lies in its ability to introduce both bromine and acetate functional groups into target molecules, enabling the synthesis of more complex compounds. This product is primarily needed by R&D chemists and process development teams in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries for building molecular frameworks.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and other bioactive molecules.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Serves as a key building block for creating novel herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Organic Synthesis Reagent: Acts as an alkylating agent or a precursor for introducing functionalized butenyl groups in complex organic reactions.
• Material Science Research: Employed in the development of specialty polymers and advanced materials with specific halogenated properties.
• Cross-Coupling Reactions: A potential substrate in palladium-catalyzed reactions (e.g., Suzuki, Heck) for creating carbon-carbon bonds.

Quality Control

Our 1,4-Dibromo-2-Butenyl Acetate is produced under stringent quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency, meeting the high standards required for synthetic intermediates. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity (typically >95% by GC/HPLC), identity confirmation, and impurity profiles is 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, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong acids and incompatible organic solvents. Due to its light-sensitive nature, containers should be amber-colored or stored in dark conditions.
