Intermediates 7-Bromo-1-heptanol for critical molecular building block
Product Detail
Chemical Profile & Key Applications
7-Bromo-1-heptanol (CAS 29808-87-9) is a critical bifunctional molecular building block specifically designed for sophisticated organic synthesis. Its linear C7 chain, terminated with a reactive bromo group and a hydroxymethyl group, provides an ideal spacer for introducing a seven-methylene unit into target molecules. This makes it invaluable in Medicinal Chemistry for the synthesis of compound libraries and the development of new therapeutic agents.
Primary Uses in R&D
Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a key precursor in the synthesis of various heterocyclic compounds and complex molecules that are core structures in Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs).
Chemical Linker: The bromine acts as an excellent leaving group for Williamson ether synthesis or carbon-chain elongation, while the hydroxyl group can be further functionalized, offering immense flexibility in molecular design.
