4-Bromobenzaldehyde, 98+%

4-Bromobenzaldehyde is widely utilized as an intermediate for the preparation of agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals and other organic compounds. It is used as a precursor and reacts with sulfamethoxazole to prepare Schiff’s base, 4-[(4-Bromo-benzylidene)-amino]-N-(5-methyl-isoxazol-3-yl)-benzene sulfonamide, which can be used for the photo stability of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It plays an important role in palladium-catalyzed mono- and bis-arylation of 3,4-(ethylenedioxy)thiophenes. It is employed in a cross-coupling study with potassium vinyltrifluoroborate.

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.
