Industrial Uses

1. Agrochemicals

  • Intermediates: It serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of various agrochemicals, including some pesticides and insecticides. Its bromine substituents make it a reactive building block for creating more complex compounds with desired properties.

2. Pharmaceuticals

  • Intermediates: It is used as an intermediate involved in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredient and other organic compounds. It is also used in the investigation of metabolism of two halopropanes such as 1,3-dichloropropane and 2,2-dichloropropane. Further, 
  • Reagent: It acts as a reagent to prepare diazadioxaoxovanadium (IV) macrocyclic complexes.

3. Performance Chemicals 

  • Intermediates: 1,4-Dibromobutane serves as a versatile building block in organic synthesis, particularly for creating diacids and diamines It acts as an intermediate in reactions, enabling the synthesis of other molecules.

4. Polymers & Resins

  • Cross linking agent: It is Used a crosslinking agent used in polymer chemistry to create more rigid and less flexible polymer structures. It's a dihalide, meaning it has two bromine atoms at the 1 and 4 positions on the butane backbone, which allows it to react with two different polymer chains simultaneously.
