4-bromo-2-hydroxyacetophenone

4-Bromo-2-hydroxyacetophenone (CAS 30186-18-6) is a high-purity brominated hydroxyacetophenone intermediate widely used in pharmaceutical synthesis and organic chemistry research. This compound features a bromine substituent at the para-position and a hydroxyl group at the ortho-position of the acetophenone structure, making it a versatile building block for the development of complex organic molecules and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). As a key intermediate in heterocyclic synthesis, condensation reactions, and functional group transformations, it exhibits excellent reactivity in Friedel-Crafts acylation, Claisen-Schmidt condensation, and cyclization reactions. Our product is manufactured under strict quality control standards, ensuring a purity of ≥98%, making it ideal for pharmaceutical manufacturing, medicinal chemistry research, and scale-up production. This compound is particularly valuable in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals containing brominated phenolic structures, benzofuran derivatives, and chromone-based APIs.
