1-Propenyl bromide (CAS 590-14-7) is an unsaturated alkyl halide used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly for pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and specialty polymers. As a vinylic bromide, it serves as a building block for introducing the 1-propenyl group into molecules, for example via the corresponding propenyl Grignard or lithium reagents and in cross-coupling reactions. This chemical has the molecular formula C3H5Br with a molecular weight of 120.98 g/mol. It must be stored at ambient conditions in a well-ventilated area, away from moisture and oxidizing agents. The product carries a Danger signal word because it is a highly flammable liquid and vapour and causes skin, eye and respiratory irritation. Molekula supplies 1-propenyl bromide from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
