| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Bromo-PEG2-alcohol is a PEG linker containing a bromide group with a terminal hydroxyl group. The hydrophilic PEG spacer increases solubility in aqueous media. The bromide (Br) is a very good leaving group for nucleophilic substitution reactions. The hydroxyl group enables further derivatization or replacement with other reactive functional groups. | [Uses]
2-(2-Bromoethoxy)ethanol is an organic building block used in the Fe2O3-promoted intermolecular chlorotrifluoromethylthiolation of alkenes, and in the preparation of near-IR BODIPY fluorophores as intracellular pH sensors. |
