Industrial Uses

1. Performance Chemicals

  • Solvent: Bromobenzene is used as a solvent, especially for crystallizations and in large-scale operations. Its non-polar nature makes it suitable for dissolving a variety of organic compounds.
  • Reagent: Bromobenzene reacts with magnesium to form phenylmagnesium bromide, a Grignard reagent.

2. Agrochemicals

  • Intermediate: used as an intermediate in the synthesis of active ingredients for crop protection products. It's also used in the synthesis of Grignard reagents, which are valuable for further chemical reactions.

3. Pharmaceuticals

  • Intermediate: It is used in the pharmaceutical industry primarily as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of various drug compounds. It acts as a building block for creating more complex molecules with desired pharmacological properties.

4. Polymers & Resins 

  • Solvent: It is used as a solvent in polymer chemistry, particularly in reactions where a non-polar environment is needed.
