Product Parameters
1-Bromododecane (Lauryl Bromide) CAS No.: 143-15-7,Molecular formula: C12H25Br,M.W.: 249.23, is long-chain aliphatic bromoalkane that appears as a colourless to slight yellow clear liquid Its carbon chain structure combines excellent lipophilicity and high reactivity, and is widely recognized as an efficient alkylating agent and a reliable carbon chain building block. It serves as the critical fine-chemical intermediate that bridges basic chemical raw materials and high value-added end products.
Specifications & Quality Control
Backed by nearly three decades of expertise in organobromine synthesis and distillation purification experience, Yancheng Longshen Chemical reliably supplies 1-bromododecane in a comprehensive range of purities and volumes—supporting every stage from laboratory scouting,process optimization,pilot campaigns up to multi-kiloton industrial production. Our standard product specifications include ≥ 98.5% (industrial grade) and ≥ 99.0% (high-purity grade), and we can accept orders with customized purity. Through strict quality control, the product has the characteristics of low color (APHA), low moisture (determined by Karl Fischer method), low acid value, and low impurity content. This provides excellent reaction efficiency and product purity assurance for downstream customers' key reactions such as nucleophilic substitution, Grignard reaction, etc. Its outstanding batch-to-batch consistency significantly reduces the risk and cost of process validation and scale-up for customers.
Main Applications
As a versatile, multi-functional intermediate, 1-bromododecane serves as the gateway to numerous high-value chemical value chains.:
Pharmaceutical & Agrochemical Intermediates:
It is the key building block for introducing the n-dodecyl fragment into a broad spectrum of APIs, including antibacterial, antineoplastic and cardiovascular drugs, as well as for crafting new-generation, low-toxicity agrochemicals.
Surfactants and daily chemical raw materials:
It is the key raw material for manufacturing cationic surfactants such as dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) and dodecyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride (DDBAC), as well as disinfectants, textile softeners and antistatic agents.
Functional Materials and electronic chemicals:
Serving as a high-purity precursor for ionic liquids, phase-transfer catalysts (PTCs), specialty ink and functional-coating additives, and advanced liquid-crystal intermediates.
Polymer Additives & Advanced Materials:
Acts as a dedicated intermediate for PVC heat stabilizers and plastic modifiers, enabling enhanced thermal stability, processability and end-use performance of polymeric systems.
New Energy & Frontier Research:
It also has broad application prospects in lithium battery materials and scientific research experiments.
Use, Storage & Safety Guidelines
This product is recommended use under Perform nucleophilic substitution or alkylation in the presence of bases (NaOH, K₂CO₃), amines, or metal catalysts.Run the reaction under an inert atmosphere (UHP N₂ or Ar) to maximize yield and suppress side reactions; exclude strong oxidizers or mineral acids from the system.Keep in a cool, dry, light-protected area with the container tightly sealed.Wear chemical-resistant gloves, splash goggles, and impervious clothing; ensure adequate local exhaust ventilation and avoid any contact with skin or eyes.For full physicochemical data, toxicological and ecological profiles, emergency-response procedures, and transport classifications, consult the latest revision of the enclosed MSDS and GHS label before use.
Packaging, Logistics & Technical Services
We offer flexible packaging solutions: industrial-grade products in 200 kg drums, plus laboratory sizes of 100 ml and 500 ml reagent bottles. Each shipment is accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), and third-party test reports can be provided on request. A dedicated technical team stands ready to provide you with product applications and technical support.
