4-Bromostyrene, 98%, stab. with 0.1% 4-tert-butylcatechol, Thermo Scientific Chemicals

Description

4-Bromostyrene is widely utilized in the synthesis of nitroolefins by alkene cross-metathesis. It plays an important role in the Heck reaction to the synthesis of poly(1,4-phenylenevinylene). It is employed in the structure activity relationships (SAR) study of the chemical and biochemical properties of the vinyl group of styrene. It is also used to investigate the photochemical growth of Br-terminated self-assembled monolayers. It is also involved in the synthesis of silsesquioxanes.

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.
