3-Methylbutylzinc bromide solution
3-Methylbutylzinc bromide solution (CAS 92274-43-6), with the linear formula (CH3)2CHCH2CH2ZnBr and a molecular weight of 216.43 g/mol, is a vital organozinc reagent. Supplied as a 0.5 M solution in THF, it is primarily utilised in organic synthesis for carbon-carbon bond formation via coupling reactions and as a nucleophilic source of the 3-methylbutyl group. Its reactivity makes it indispensable in the development of complex molecules within research and industrial chemistry.
Organic Synthesis Reagent
Employed in organometallic chemistry for carbon-carbon bond formation, particularly in Negishi coupling reactions. It serves as a key building block for introducing the 3-methylbutyl moiety into organic frameworks.
Intermediate for Complex Molecules
Facilitates the synthesis of pharmaceutical intermediates and advanced materials. Its controlled reactivity allows for precise functionalization in multi-step synthetic routes.
Specialty Chemical Manufacturing
Used in the industrial production of fine chemicals requiring the incorporation of a branched alkyl chain. The solution's stability in THF aids in handling and reaction control.
