1-Bromo-6-(Trimethylammonium)Hexyl Bromide Standard

Product Introduction:

1-Bromo-6-(Trimethylammonium)Hexyl Bromide is a specialized bifunctional organic compound, featuring a hexyl (6-carbon) chain. At one end, it has a quaternary trimethylammonium bromide group, and at the other end (6-position), a bromo substituent. It typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder.

This compound is a highly valuable and versatile building block in organic synthesis, particularly for introducing a functionalized alkyl spacer that possesses both a permanently charged quaternary ammonium center and a reactive halogen atom. This dual functionality enables diverse chemical transformations and the creation of complex molecular architectures.

Main Uses:

1. Organic Synthesis: This compound is a crucial reagent for introducing a specific functionalized spacer group (6-bromohexyl) into target molecules. The bromine atom acts as an excellent leaving group, facilitating nucleophilic substitution reactions to attach the molecule to various nucleophiles, while the quaternary ammonium group provides a permanent positive charge and influences solubility and intermolecular interactions.

2. Medicinal Chemistry and Chemical Biology: It is used in the synthesis of novel drug candidates and chemical probes. The quaternary ammonium group can interact with biological systems (e.g., cell membranes, neurotransmitter receptors), and the functionalizable alkyl bromide allows for conjugation to other bioactive molecules, enabling the creation of targeted therapeutics, imaging agents, or enzyme inhibitors.

3. Polymer Chemistry: It can be used as a monomer or initiator for the synthesis of specialized polymers that incorporate quaternary ammonium groups (e.g., polyelectrolytes, ionomers with antimicrobial properties) or for introducing brominated sites into polymer backbones for subsequent functionalization.

4. Advanced Materials: It finds application in the development of advanced materials such as responsive materials, antimicrobial surfaces, components for electrochemical devices, or in supramolecular assemblies, where the unique combination of charge, chain length, and reactivity is exploited.

5. Biotechnology Research: Utilized in research to create linkers, cross-linking agents, or affinity tags for biomolecules, particularly in studies involving membrane interactions or charged biomolecules.
