FAQs

The main use of Nova International’s 1-Bromobutane is an alkylating agent, is it is an important precursor in the formation of alkyl chains on organic compounds,it serves as a starting material when forming a Grignard reagent(butylmagnesium bromide), andit acts as an effective intermediate in their development in pharmaceutical and agrochemical products.

The contents should be kept in securely capped containers at a location which is cool, dry and well ventilated but out of direct sunlight, free from heat or any open flames. Also avoid any strongly oxidizing or alkaline materials.

The 1-Bromobutane is poorly soluble, or almost, in water (approx. 0.6 g / L of solvent) and perfectly miscible with most classic organic solvents ( ether , alcohol , acetone ).

Chemical protective gloves, chemical resistant, safety glasses, adequate ventilation (fumehoods) should be used as 1-Bromobutane is flammable and skin & respiratory irritant.
