Product Parameters
1-Bromotetradecane (Myristyl Bromide,Tetradecyl Bromide) CAS No.: 112-71-0,Molecular formula: C14H27Br, M.W.: 277.28, is a white to light yellow solid. It is an important long-chain brominated alkane. Thanks to its unique fourteen-carbon-chain structure, it exhibits excellent lipophilicity and surface activity, and is widely used as a raw material for surfactant synthesis and as a long-chain alkylating reagent.
Specifications & Quality Control
We provide high-purity Bromotetradecane with a standard specification of ≥ 98.0% (GC). 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. Each batch of products undergoes multiple tests, including gas chromatography (GC) and Karl Fischer moisture determination, to ensure stable and reliable quality that meets the requirements of various application scenarios.
Main Applications
1-Bromotetradecane is an important fine chemical intermediate with a wide range of applications, including:
Surfactant Synthesis:
Production of cationic surfactants (e.g., tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide) and amphoteric surfactants.
