Description

4-(3-Bromo-3-Butenyl)Benzoic Acid is a valuable brominated aromatic building block featuring both a reactive bromoalkene moiety and a benzoic acid functional group. This bifunctional nature makes it a critical intermediate for synthesizing complex molecules in advanced research and development. It is primarily sought after by pharmaceutical chemists and agrochemical researchers for constructing novel active ingredients and fine chemical scaffolds.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key building block for the synthesis of novel drug candidates, particularly in medicinal chemistry programs targeting new therapeutic agents.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the research and development of advanced pesticides, herbicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Material Precursor: Serves as a starting material for creating specialized organic molecules used in electronic displays and optoelectronic devices.
• Polymer & Specialty Chemical Modification: Employed to introduce functional groups into polymer chains or other complex molecules to alter their physical or chemical properties.
• Cross-Coupling Reactions: The bromoalkene group is amenable to various palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki, Heck) for carbon-carbon bond formation.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: A versatile reagent for organic synthesis research in university laboratories and corporate R&D centers exploring new chemical entities.

Quality Control

Our 4-(3-Bromo-3-Butenyl)Benzoic Acid is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods (NMR, IR). We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or production specifications.

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). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
