Description
2-Bromo-4-chloro-1-fluorobenzene (CAS No. 1996-30-1) is a high-purity halogenated benzene derivative with the molecular formula C6H3BrClF. This compound is a valuable building block in organic synthesis, particularly in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. Its unique combination of bromo, chloro, and fluoro substituents on the aromatic ring allows for selective functionalization via cross-coupling reactions, nucleophilic substitutions, or metal-catalyzed transformations. Available in >98% purity (GC), this reagent is rigorously tested for consistency and stability, packaged under inert gas to ensure longevity. Ideal for Suzuki-Miyaura couplings, Buchwald-Hartwig aminations, or as a precursor for liquid crystals and electronic materials. MSDS and NMR spectra available upon request.
