Product Information
2-(2-Bromoacetyl)thiophene is a chiral cyclic compound that can be used in the synthesis of serotonin. This compound undergoes stereoselective hydrogenation, which is an enantioselective process. The hydrogenation is done by using a catalyst, such as Raney nickel, to selectively reduce one of the two possible double bonds in the molecule. 2-(2-Bromoacetyl)thiophene has been shown to have resistant properties and can be used in the design of drugs that are resistant to reuptake. It also has acidic properties, which means it can leach into soil easily.
