Product Information

• Name: 5-Bromo-2-tetralone
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 5-Bromo-2-tetralone is a dienophile that undergoes the Diels-Alder reaction to form a six-membered ring with an alkene. The reaction starts with an addition of a diene to the bromo compound followed by cyclization. In this process, the carbonyl group is lost and a new double bond is formed between the two carbon atoms. This reaction can be used in methodology to synthesize other compounds, such as indoles and benzannulated carbazoles. The use of this reaction is limited by the availability of diene and dienophile reactants.
