Product Information

• Name: 5-Bromo thiophene-2-aldehyde
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 5-Bromo thiophene-2-aldehyde is a trifluoroacetic acid derivative used as an activatable probe for the study of biomolecular interactions. This compound has been shown to be biocompatible and has a low cytotoxicity. 5-Bromo thiophene-2-aldehyde binds to malonic acid in the presence of x-ray radiation and forms a complex that can be detected by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The structure of this complex was determined by x-ray crystal structures. This probe is also able to bind to nitrogen atoms in proteins, which can be used to diagnose cancer resistance through protease activity. 5-Bromo thiophene-2-aldehyde is isolated as its hydrochloride salt, which can be purified with a suzuki coupling reaction.
