General description

2-Bromobenzoic acid (2-BA) on condensation with aminoquinolines yields phenylquinolylamines. 2-BA is the common building block for synthesis of various nitrogen heterocycles.

Application

2-Bromobenzoic acid was used in the synthesis of new zinc(II) − 2-bromobenzoate complex compounds. It was used as the starting reagent in the synthesis of hemilabile benzimidazolyl phosphine ligands.
