3-Bromothiofuran(Cat No.: R020269), also known as 3-bromothiophene, is a halogenated heterocyclic compound featuring a five-membered thiophene ring with a bromine atom at the 3-position. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid and serves as a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and conducting polymers. The bromine atom allows for versatile functionalization through cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki or Stille coupling, making it useful for constructing more complex molecules and conjugated systems in material science.
