2-Thienylzinc bromide solution
2-Thienylzinc bromide solution (CAS 45438-80-0, C4H3BrSZn, MW 228.43) is an organozinc reagent supplied by Tech Serve Solutions at 0.5 M in THF. This chemical is primarily utilised in organic synthesis as a versatile building block. It plays a key role in cross-coupling reactions, enabling the introduction of the 2-thienyl moiety into various molecular structures, facilitating the development of complex organic compounds for research and industrial applications.

Organometallic Cross-Coupling
Serves as a nucleophilic coupling partner in various metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, such as Suzuki-Miyaura and Negishi couplings. This allows for the efficient formation of carbon-carbon bonds with aryl or vinyl halides.
Heteroaryl Synthesis
Enables the regioselective introduction of the 2-thienyl group into organic molecules. This is particularly useful in the synthesis of thiophene-containing compounds with applications in materials science and medicinal chemistry.
Precursor for Complex Molecules
Acts as a valuable intermediate in multi-step syntheses of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and advanced materials requiring a thiophene core.
