1-Bromotetradecane was used in the synthesis of tetradecylferrocene, cationic and zwitterionic gemini surfactants, and 9-tetradecylcarbazole. Also used for synthesis of metallomesogenic polymers based on bis[η1(N)-3,4-dialkyloxybenzylidene-4?-dodecyloxyaniline]dichloropalladium(II) with octyl, decyl, dodecyl, tetradecyl and hexadecyl alkyl groups.
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. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
