2,6-Dibromo-4-methylaniline, 98+%

Description

CAS: 6968-24-7 | C7H7Br2N | 264.948 g/mol

2,6-Dibromo-4-methylaniline is used as coupling reagent in spectrophotometric determination of carbaryl in various environmental samples. It was also in preparation of 2-bromo-6-iodo-4-methylaniline. 2,6-Dibromo-4-methylaniline undergoes Suzuki-coupling reaction with 2-dihydroxyboryl-3-methyl-2-cyclopenten-1-one during synthesis of the dinuclear dichlorotitanium complexes. 2,6-Dibromo-4-methylaniline is also used as an intermediate for the synthesis of pharmaceutucals, agrochemicals, dyes and other organic chemicals.

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.
