Product Description
3-Bromobenzoic acid tert-butyl ester, with the molecular formula C10H11BrO2, is an ester derivative where a tert-butyl group is attached to the carboxyl group of 3-bromobenzoic acid. The bromine atom in the aromatic ring provides reactivity for electrophilic substitution reactions. This compound is primarily used in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and specialty materials. It serves as an intermediate in creating complex molecules and in the production of fine chemicals. The ester group enhances solubility, improving processing and formulation. Industries such as chemicals, healthcare, and materials science benefit from its ability to aid in targeted molecular design and innovation.
