3-Bromoanisole (Cat No.: R007913) is an aromatic organic compound consisting of a methoxy (-OCH₃) group and a bromine atom attached to a benzene ring at the 1- and 3-positions, respectively. It is a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki, Heck, and Buchwald-Hartwig reactions. The bromine serves as a reactive handle for substitution, while the methoxy group modulates the electronic properties of the ring. 3-Bromoanisole is used in the development of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and functional materials.
