Description

m-Bromobenzenethiol (CAS No. 6320-01-0) is a high-purity aromatic thiol compound with the molecular formula C₆H₅BrS, widely utilized in organic synthesis and material science research. This compound, also known as 3-bromobenzenethiol, features a bromine substituent at the meta position of the benzene ring, offering unique reactivity for nucleophilic substitution and metal-coupling reactions. With a molecular weight of 189.07 g/mol, it is a versatile building block for pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and functionalized polymers. Our product is rigorously tested for purity (typically ??95% by GC) and is supplied in sealed containers under inert atmosphere to ensure stability. Available in quantities from grams to kilograms, it is ideal for researchers requiring precise control over sulfur-containing intermediates.

Application

m-Bromobenzenethiol serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of sulfur-containing heterocycles and ligands for transition metal catalysts. It is employed in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions (e.g., thioetherification) to construct complex aryl sulfides. The compound also finds use in surface modification of nanomaterials and as a chain transfer agent in polymer chemistry. Researchers utilize its reactive thiol group for bioconjugation and self-assembled monolayer (SAM) formation on gold surfaces.
