Description

CAS: 3958-60-9 | C7H6BrNO2 | 216.034 g/mol

2-Nitrobenzyl bromide is used in the preparation of S-2-nitrobenzyl-cysteine by reaction with L-cysteine. It is also used for the introduction of the 2-nitrobenzyl protecting group in organic synthesis. It plays an important role in the production of expectorant agent. Further, it is employed for caging unprotected cysteine-containing or thiophosphorylated peptides in aqueous solution. In addition to this, it is used in the preparation of (R)- and (S)-3-amino-3,4-dihydro-1H-quinolin-2-one.

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.
