Description
2-Bromothiophene (CAS No. 1003-09-4) is a high-purity brominated heterocyclic compound with the molecular formula C4H3BrS. This organobromine derivative of thiophene is widely utilized in organic synthesis, pharmaceutical research, and material science due to its reactive bromine substituent at the 2-position. Our product is rigorously tested to ensure >98% purity (GC), with trace metals and moisture levels minimized for sensitive applications. Supplied in amber glass bottles under inert gas to prevent degradation, it is ideal for cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki, Stille) and as a building block for conductive polymers, liquid crystals, and agrochemicals. Available in quantities from 1g to 1kg with customizable packaging.

Application
2-Bromothiophene serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of thiophene-based pharmaceuticals, including antipsychotic and antiviral agents. It is extensively used in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions to create conjugated polymers for organic electronics (OLEDs, OFETs). In material science, it acts as a precursor for sulfur-containing liquid crystals and corrosion inhibitors. Researchers also employ it to modify surface properties of nanomaterials and as a ligand in catalytic systems.
