1-Bromo-3-methylbutane, 98%

Description

CAS: 107-82-4 | C5H11Br | 151.05 g/mol

1-Bromo-3-methylbutane was used in the synthesis of 1-(3-methylbutyl)pyrrole and in the production of pentyl peroxy radical by direct photolysis production method. It was also used as extraction solvent for determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in water samples using liquid-liquid microextraction combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. It is also used as an alkyl halide and organic synthesis reagent.

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.
