General description

1,8-Dibromooctaneis primarily used in organic synthesis as a building block for the preparationof various chemical intermediates.It is used as an alkylating reagent in aone-pot synthesis for the production of paraffin-like oligomers and it is usedto enhance crystallization and film formation of perovskite.

Application


  • Efficient manual Fmoc solid-phase synthesis of the N-terminal segment of surfactant protein B (SP-B(1-25)).: This study highlights the application of Fmoc-Gly-Wang resin in the synthesis of peptide segments, specifically demonstrating its utility in constructing the N-terminal segment of surfactant protein B (SP-B). The research underscores the resin′s effectiveness in peptide synthesis, emphasizing its role in generating biochemically significant peptides (Ramli et al., 2009).
