1,5-Dibromo-3-fluoro-2,4-dimethylbenzene
CAS 1781113-11-8
Some molecules are valuable because they already contain the “handles” needed for the next reactions. CAS 1781113-11-8 is a compact example.
1,5-Dibromo-3-fluoro-2,4-dimethylbenzene (CAS 1781113-11-8) is a prefunctionalized aromatic building block. Its two C-Br bonds can serve as cross-coupling handles, while the much less reactive aryl C-F bond can remain in the product. Two methyl groups further tune sterics and electronics. The molecule's value is not a direct end use, but the ability to choose which positions to transform next.
