Product Information

• Name: 2-Bromo-5-fluorobenzonitrile
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Bromo-5-fluorobenzonitrile is a fluorescent probe that has been used to measure the fluorescence properties of metal ions. It has been used to characterize the kinetics of chemical reactions, such as the Suzuki coupling reaction. The use of 2-bromo-5-fluorobenzonitrile as a fluorescent probe for metal ions was first proposed in 1978 by K. Ikeda and coworkers. The fluorophore exhibits two isomeric forms, cis and trans, which have different fluorescence properties. The cis form emits light at 405 nm while the trans form emits light at 412 nm.
