FormLiquid
Bromoacetyl bromide is widely used in the synthesis of fine chemicals, agrochemicals, dyes and pharmaceuticals. As an acylating agent, it reacts with 10H-phenothiazine to give 10-bromoacetyl-10H-phenothiazine. Similarly, it is also involved in the preparation of bromoactylated starch which is a biodegradable thermoplastic copolymer.

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.
