1,2-Diiodobenzene is useful for Suzuki reaction. It is also used in the synthesis of purino[8,9-f] phenanthridines. Further, it acts as a precursor for the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients intermediate.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
