Product Information

• Name: 3-Bromobenzophenone
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3-Bromobenzophenone is a chemical compound that has been used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and perfumes. It is a colorless liquid with a boiling point of 57 °C and a density of 1.01 g/cm3 at 25 °C. 3-Bromobenzophenone reacts with ferrocene to form an organometallic compound, which can be used to synthesize pharmaceuticals and perfumes. In this reaction, ferrocene acts as an electron donor and 3-bromobenzophenone as an electron acceptor. The reaction is known as the Suzuki coupling reaction, which is also employed in other organic synthesis reactions such as the palladium catalyzed cross-coupling reaction or the palladium catalyzed couplings involving organophosphorus compounds.
