Description

D-3-Bromocamphor CAS NO 76-29-9 is a versatile chiral brominated derivative of camphor, serving as a critical chiral building block and resolving agent in asymmetric synthesis. Its unique steric and electronic properties make it indispensable for inducing stereoselectivity in complex organic transformations. This high-purity intermediate is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors who require precise control over molecular chirality.

Application

• As a chiral auxiliary or ligand in asymmetric catalysis for pharmaceutical active ingredient (API) synthesis.
• As a resolving agent for the separation of enantiomers in fine chemical and drug development.
• As a key synthetic intermediate for the preparation of other functionalized camphor derivatives.
• In agrochemical research for the development of chiral pesticides and herbicides.
• In materials science for the synthesis of chiral polymers and liquid crystals.
• In academic and industrial R&D for methodological studies in stereochemistry.
