7-Bromo-1-heptanol: A Versatile C7 Building Block for Advanced Synthesis

7-Bromo-1-heptanol is a high-purity, bifunctional organic compound that serves as an essential molecular building block in pharmaceutical discovery and fine chemical synthesis. This compound features both a terminal bromine atom and a primary hydroxyl group, separated by a seven-carbon alkyl chain. This structure makes it an exceptionally versatile linker and spacer for constructing more complex molecular architectures.

As a key synthetic intermediate, it is primarily used in nucleophilic substitution reactions, cyclizations, and particularly in the preparation of diverse heterocycles and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). Its application extends to creating novel chemical entities for drug discovery programs. We guarantee exceptional quality and batch-to-batch consistency, making 7-Bromo-1-heptanol a reliable choice for your most demanding R&D and scale-up projects.

    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.
