1,3-Dibromobenzene (Cat No.: R023222) is an aromatic organic compound with the chemical formula C₆H₄Br₂, consisting of a benzene ring substituted with bromine atoms at the 1 and 3 positions (meta configuration). It is a colorless to pale yellow solid, slightly soluble in water but readily soluble in organic solvents. This compound is commonly used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and advanced materials. Its bromine substituents make it suitable for cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki and Heck reactions in organic synthesis.
