Application

Bromoacetic acid is mainly used for the N-terminal bromoacylation of resin bound peptides.[1][2]
It can also be used:
  • To synthesize (Z)-2-(cyclooct-4-en-1-yloxy)acetic acid.[3]
  • To synthesize α-bromo-phenylacetamide.[4]
  • To convert aromatic thiosemicarbazones to thiazolylhydrazones.[5]

To sense hydrophilic anions in protic solvents, we fabricated polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) nanofibers incorporating 4-nitrophenyl azo thiourea polymer as a chromoionophore. When methanol solutions containing anions contacted the PMMA nanofiber, a bathochromic shift from 386 nm was observed in the absorption maximum
