Product Information

• Name: 2-Bromo-5-nitrobenzaldehyde
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Bromo-5-nitrobenzaldehyde is a useful chemical that has been shown to have antimicrobial properties. It inhibits the growth of bacteria by acting as an antibacterial agent. 2-Bromo-5-nitrobenzaldehyde can be used in the production of other chemicals, such as quinoline derivatives, which are useful for treating bacterial infections. This compound also has stereoselective properties that allow it to inhibit bacterial growth more effectively than if it were not stereoselective. In addition, 2-bromo-5-nitrobenzaldehyde has a high polar surface area, which makes it an effective drug against bacteria because water is a polar molecule. The molecule can act as a nucleophile and react with amines present in the cell membrane of the bacteria to form imines or lactams, leading to death of the bacteria.
