Description

Application

1-Bromo-2-ethylbutane was used in the preparation of dialkoxytriarylamine[1]. It was also used as cysteine-modifying reagent[2].

Reactant involved in the synthesis of biologically active molecules including:

• Nantenine analogs with aporphinoid 5-HT2A and α-1A antagonistic activity
• Aporphines with cytotoxicity toward human colon cancer cell lines
• Dimeric amide foldamers acting as alpha-helix mimetics
• Endocrine-disrupting nanylphenol isomers synthesized via demethylation
• Phosphonic acid-containing benzimidazoles for use as fructose-1,6-biphosphatase inhibitors
