2-Bromonaphthalene（Cat No.:R069048）is an aromatic halogenated hydrocarbon consisting of a naphthalene ring system with a bromine atom substituted at the 2-position. It appears as a pale yellow to colorless liquid or crystalline solid and is primarily used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, including the preparation of dyes, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals. The bromine atom facilitates cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki or Heck reactions, enabling the formation of complex molecular architectures. Its electron-rich aromatic system also makes it suitable for electrophilic substitution. Proper handling is necessary due to its potential toxicity and environmental persistence.
