  • As a reactant in the synthesis of 4-((2-(hydroxymethyl)phenylamino)methyl)-3-nitrobenzoic acid.
  • As a thiol photo-deprotection reagent.
  • As a UV-cleavable reagent to functionalize polyacrylamide acryl hydrate (PAAH).
  • As a photocleavable linker to form localized photoinversion of surface charges inside the colloidal crystal.
  • As a starting material in the synthesis of 2H-indazole based library using parallel solution-phase methods.
  • As a reactant in the synthesis of (N-allyloxycarbonyl)-5-aminopent-1-yl 4-bromomethyl-3-nitrobenzoate.

General description

4-Bromomethyl-3-nitrobenzoic acid (BNBA) is a benzoic acid derivative. It has been synthesized by the nitration of 4-bromomethylbenzoic acid using fuming nitric acid. It participates in the synthesis of 3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-quinazolinones and 3,4-dihydro-1H-quinazolin-2-thiones.

This work describes how selective patterning of hydrophobic and hydrophilic areas inside microchannels of microfluidic devices can be achieved by combining well-known chemical protocols and standard photolithography equipment (365 nm). Two techniques have been performed and compared. The first technique

An efficient microwave-assisted and water-soluble ionic liquid (IL)-supported synthesis of medicinally important dihydro- and tetrahydroquinazolines has been developed. The protocol involves the S(N)2 substitution reaction of IL-bound 4-bromomethyl-3-nitrobenzoic acid with various primary amines to provide IL-bound 4-((alkylamino) methyl)-3-nitrobenzoate under microwave

A library of 200 2-alkyl-3-alkyloxy-2H-indazole-6-carboxamides was synthesized using parallel solution-phase methods. The indazole cyclization reaction was optimized for library production with the best yields resulting from controlled alcohol/water solvent ratios. The key step, a heterocyclization reaction, proceeds by N,N-bond formation
