Product Information

• Name: (+)-3,9-Dibromocamphor
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: (+)-3,9-Dibromocamphor is a synthetic compound that has been used as a pharmaceutical intermediate. It is used as an antifungal agent and has shown to be effective against many fungal strains. (+)-3,9-Dibromocamphor can be synthesized from camphene by alkylation with bromine followed by debromination. This synthesis results in the formation of the cyclopentane ring and the addition of two functional groups. The stereoselective synthesis of (+)-3,9-dibromocamphor requires regiospecific starting materials and stereospecific reagents that allow for the formation of one enantiomer.
