2-Bromo-3-chloroaniline (Cat No.: M057116) is a halogenated aromatic amine featuring a benzene ring substituted with a bromine at the 2-position, a chlorine at the 3-position, and an amino group at the 1-position. It appears as a solid and is primarily used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and dyes. The presence of both electron-withdrawing halogens and an electron-donating amino group makes it reactive in electrophilic and nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions, facilitating the construction of more complex functionalized aromatic compounds.
