1-(4-Bromo-2-fluorobenzyl)piperazine
1-(4-Bromo-2-fluorobenzyl)piperazine (CAS 870703-75-6) is a halogenated, fluorinated heterocyclic building block with the molecular formula C11H14BrFN2 and a molar mass of 273.14 g/mol. It pairs a secondary piperazine ring with a 4-bromo-2-fluorobenzyl group, giving an aryl bromide and a free N-H amine for onward functionalisation. Supplied at 96% assay, it is used mainly in chemical synthesis as an intermediate for pharmaceutical and discovery research. Tech Serve Solutions supplies and exports it worldwide.

Pharmaceutical and medicinal-chemistry intermediate
Serves as a piperazine-bearing scaffold in the synthesis of candidate molecules and pharmaceutical intermediates. The substituted benzylpiperazine motif is a common fragment in medicinal-chemistry programmes.
Fluorinated and halogenated building block
The combination of an aromatic fluorine and a bromine substituent makes this a versatile fluorinated building block for introducing controlled steric and electronic effects into target structures.
Cross-coupling substrate
The aryl bromide is a handle for palladium-catalysed cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki, Buchwald-Hartwig and related transformations, enabling rapid elaboration of the aromatic ring.
Functionalisation through the piperazine nitrogen
The free secondary amine (N-H) of the piperazine ring supports acylation, alkylation, sulfonylation and reductive amination, allowing diverse derivatives to be prepared from a single intermediate.
Discovery and library synthesis
As a defined C11 heterocyclic building block, it is suited to analogue preparation and library synthesis in early-stage research and process-development laboratories.
