2-Bromopropane serves as an alkylating agent in organic synthesis. It is also used as an intermediate to form alkylated amines and alkylated metallic compounds. Further, it acts as a solvent for industrial cleaning, degreasing, metal processing and finishing, electronics, aerospace and aviation, aerosols, textiles, adhesives and inks. In addition, it is used for introducing the isopropyl functional group in organic synthesis.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
