Product Information

• Name: 1-Bromo-3-methylnaphthalene
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 1-Bromo-3-methylnaphthalene is an organic compound that is primarily used as a precursor to other organic compounds. It has been shown to be useful in the synthesis of various esters, and it is also used as a building block in the synthesis of cyclopropanes. The reaction can be done at high temperatures, refluxing with carbon tetrachloride and cyclopropane ring opening under pressure. 1-Bromo-3-methylnaphthalene can also undergo bond cleavage reactions, which have been studied using isomeric analysis to determine if any stereospecificity exists. It has been found that there are no stereospecific effects on the ring opening or bond cleavage reactions.
