1,2,4-tribromobenzene is used in the synthesis of hyper branched poly(p-phenylene ethynylenes). It is used as cross-linking reagent during Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling of 2,5-diiodo-4-[(2-ethylhexyl)oxy]methoxybenzene and 1,4-diethynyl-2,5-bis-(octyloxy)benzene. It is a compound commonly used in organic synthesis reactions.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand.
