Description

1-Bromo-10-Phenyldecane is a high-purity, long-chain alkyl bromide derivative featuring a terminal phenyl group, making it a versatile organic intermediate for advanced synthesis. This compound is valued for its role in introducing hydrophobic, aromatic-tethered alkyl chains into target molecules, enabling the modification of physical and chemical properties. It is primarily sought by research and development laboratories, pharmaceutical companies, and specialty chemical manufacturers engaged in creating liquid crystals, surfactants, polymers, and novel bioactive compounds.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and prodrugs requiring lipophilic side chains for improved membrane permeability.
• Liquid Crystal Synthesis: Serves as a key building block for creating mesogenic units in display and optical materials.
• Surfactant & Polymer Modification: Acts as an alkylating agent to introduce phenyl-terminated alkyl chains into polymers or surfactant molecules, altering solubility and aggregation behavior.
• Organic Synthesis & Research: A valuable reagent for nucleophilic substitution reactions (SN2) in academic and industrial R&D for constructing complex organic architectures.
• Material Science: Employed in the surface functionalization of nanoparticles and the creation of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs).
• Flavor & Fragrance Industry: Potential intermediate for synthesizing specific aromatic compounds with long alkyl tails.
