General description

α-Bromocinnamaldehyde is commonly employed as an anti-mildew agent in commercial products.

Application

α-Bromocinnamaldehyde was used in the synthesis of 3,4-diaryl 1H-pyrazoles. It was also used in the preparation of spiro imidazolidine-oxazolidine intermediate via guanidinium ylide mediated aziridination.

Early experiments showed cinnamaldehyde had obvious therapeutic effect on viral myocarditis, but cinnamaldehyde was unstable in vivo. To overcome this limitation, we used cinnamaldehyde as a lead compound to synthesize α-bromo-4-chlorocinnamaldehyde (BCC). In the present study, we compared the therapeutic

The amount of alpha-bromocinnamaldehyde (BCA), an anti-mildew agent, in some commercial products, was examined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using the following conditions: column, Nucleosil 50-5 (Nagel, 250 mm x 4.6 mm i.d.); mobile phase, hexane-chloroform (12:5); flow rate

The Masuda borylation-Suzuki coupling (MBSC) sequence was successfully extended to the challenging coupling of vinylhalides with various (hetero)arylhalides using sterically hindered phosphane ligands. Starting from (hetero)arylhalides and α-bromocinnamaldehyde, the sequentially Pd-catalyzed process selectively furnishes α,β-substituted cinnamaldehydes without affecting the reactivity

We successfully isolated a spiro imidazolidine-oxazolidine intermediate in the reaction of guanidinium ylide mediated aziridination using alpha-bromocinnamaldehyde. X-ray crystallographic analysis unambiguously revealed that the stereogenic centers of the spiro intermediate were in a trans configuration. The role of the spiro
