Uses
5-Bromo-2-fluoro-m-xylene is an aromatic halide compound. Its chemical properties are mainly concentrated on the bromine atom on its benzene ring. It can be used to prepare Grignard reagents and aromatic boron compounds. In addition, this substance can undergo cross-coupling reactions with metal-organic reagents under the catalysis of transition metals and can be used to prepare polysubstituted fluorobenzene organic molecules.
General Description
5-Bromo-2-fluoro-1,3-dimethylbenzene (also known as 5-bromo-2-fluoro-m-xylene) is an intermediate compound. This substance can be used as a starting material for the synthesis of specific TADF luminescent materials [1].
