4-Bromo-1-butanol（Cat No.:L003508）is a bifunctional organic compound with the molecular formula C4H9BrO. It features a four-carbon linear chain bearing a hydroxyl group (–OH) at one end and a bromine atom at the other, making it both a primary alcohol and an alkyl halide. This dual reactivity enables its use as a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of ethers, esters, and amines via substitution or coupling reactions. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid, miscible with many organic solvents, and should be handled with care due to its irritant and lachrymatory properties.
