1-Bromooctane(Cat No.:M069458)is a straight-chain alkyl halide with the molecular formula C₈H₁₇Br, consisting of an eight-carbon saturated hydrocarbon chain terminated by a bromine atom at the 1-position. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid that is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. 1-Bromooctane is commonly used as an alkylating agent in organic synthesis, particularly in nucleophilic substitution reactions to introduce octyl groups. It serves as a versatile intermediate in the production of surfactants, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals, and is also employed in materials science and surface modification research.
