CAS 20608-83-7: 3-(2-Bromophenyl)thiophene

Description: 3-(2-Bromophenyl)thiophene is an organic compound characterized by its thiophene ring, which is a five-membered aromatic heterocycle containing sulfur. The presence of a bromophenyl group at the 3-position of the thiophene ring introduces both electron-withdrawing and steric effects, influencing its reactivity and physical properties. This compound typically exhibits a yellow to brown color and is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and acetone, but may have limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. It is often used in organic synthesis and materials science, particularly in the development of organic semiconductors and photovoltaic devices. The bromine substituent can facilitate further chemical modifications, making it a versatile intermediate in various synthetic pathways. Additionally, the compound may exhibit interesting electronic properties, making it a subject of study in the field of organic electronics. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks due to the presence of bromine and its potential reactivity.
