General description

3-Methoxybenzyl bromide is a benzyl bromide derivative.

Application

3-Methoxybenzyl bromide (1-bromomethyl-3-methoxybenzene) may be used in the diastereoselective alkylation of vicinal dianions of chiral succinic acid derivatives.
It may be used in the synthesis of the following:
  • 6-(3-methoxyphenyl)-hexane-2,4-dione
  • N-(3-methoxybenzyl)-N-(1-methyl-1-phenylethyl)-amine
  • 2-(3-methoxybenzyl)-3-[(1R)-7,7-dimethyl-2-oxobicyclo[2.2.1]hept-1-yl]-(3S)-2-thionia-bicyclo [2.2.1]- heptane tetrafluoroborate
  • 1-(3-methoxybenzyl)-5-(1-methyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole
