Product Information

• Name: 2-Bromo-3-methylthiophene
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Bromo-3-methylthiophene (2BMT) is an organic chemical compound that has been used for the Suzuki coupling reaction. It can be prepared by reacting 2-bromo-3-methylthiophene with potassium hydroxide in a hydroxide solution. 2BMT has shown to inhibit the activity of tiagabine hydrochloride, which is a drug that regulates GABA neurotransmission. 2BMT is also used as an intermediate in the synthesis of carbonyl group compounds and halides. The structure and physical properties of 2BMT have been studied in detail by x-ray crystallography and nmr spectroscopy.
