Dimethyl 2,5-dibromoterephthalate（Cat No.:M078044）is a brominated aromatic diester used as a key intermediate in organic synthesis, especially in the production of polymers and advanced materials. Featuring two bromine atoms on a terephthalate backbone, it is well-suited for cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki or Heck, enabling the construction of complex aromatic systems. Its high thermal stability and reactivity make it valuable in developing flame retardants, specialty plastics, and optoelectronic materials. The compound is typically supplied as a crystalline solid, soluble in organic solvents like chloroform and dichloromethane.
