Description

4-Bromo-2,6-dimethylanisole (CAS No. 14804-38-7) is a high-purity aromatic compound with the molecular formula C₉H₁₁BrO. Also known as 5-bromo-2-methoxy-1,3-dimethylbenzene, this organic intermediate features a bromine substituent on a methoxy-substituted dimethylbenzene ring, making it a valuable building block for synthetic chemistry applications. Its well-defined structure (IUPAC name: 5-bromo-2-methoxy-1,3-dimethylbenzene) ensures consistency in reactions requiring precise electrophilic or nucleophilic substitution. This compound is supplied as a clear to pale-yellow liquid or low-melting solid with ≥95% purity (GC), ideal for pharmaceutical intermediates, ligand synthesis, and material science research. Packaged under inert gas to enhance stability, it is compatible with Grignard reactions, cross-coupling methodologies (e.g., Suzuki-Miyaura), and functional group transformations. Available in quantities from 1g to 1kg with optional third-party analytical certification (NMR, HPLC-MS).
