1-bromoheptane is an important precursor material and intermediate used in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio.
α,α,α',α'-Tetrabromo-o-xylene reacts with 5endo,6endo-bis-chlormethyl-norborn-2-en to obtain trans/cis-2,3-bis(chloromethyl)-1,4-methano-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroanthracene. Further, it is involved in the preparation of 1-(3-butenyl)-2-(deuteriomethyl)benzene by reacting with allylmagnesium bromide.
Perfluoro(methylcyclohexane) is used as a solvent to determine fluorophilicity of hydrocarbon and fluorocarbon-functionalized nicotinic acid esters. It combines with chloroform and acts as an ingredient for fluorous biphase reactions.
1-Bromo-3-methyl-2-butene is considered as a source of 3,3-dimethylallyl group and used in the preparation of natural products. It is also employed in the synthesis of base-modified pyrimidine nucleosides.
1,6-Dibromohexane is used as a reagent in the synthesis of novel benzo[b]xanthone derivatives which have a potential antitumor activity. It is also used as a cross-linker for the cross-linking of glycuronans.

The alkylation of phthalimide with alkyl halides was first reported in 1884, but in 1887 S. Gabriel realized that the process was a general one and developed a synthesis for primary amines. Henceforward, the mild two-step process for the preparation of primary amines from their corresponding alkyl...
In 1877, C.Friedel and J.M. Crafts reacted amyl chloride with aluminum pieces in benzene, forming amyl benzene. The reaction of alkyl halides with benzene was found to be general, and aluminum chloride (AlCl3) was identified as the catalyst.
