Description

Trans-4-bromo-b-nitrostyrene is a synthetic intermediate that can be used for the synthesis of polymers, pharmaceuticals, and dyes. It has been shown to react with organocatalysts to form new carbon-carbon bonds. Trans-4-bromo-b-nitrostyrene reacts with a chiral catalyst in an enamine reaction to produce a mixture of two diastereomers. The conformation of trans-4-bromo-b-nitrostyrene was optimized by using the dihedral angles and carbonyl groups within the molecule. Trans-4-(bromomethyl)styrene is used in the synthesis of certain biomolecules such as proteins, antibiotics, and nucleic acids.
