In which industries is bromoacetic acid used

Sources:www.worldbrom.com | PublishDate:2025.07.08

Bromoacetic acid is an important organic intermediate widely used in various industries such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides, dyes, etc., as follows:
1. Pharmaceutical industry: It can be used to synthesize barbiturates and is also an intermediate for synthesizing certain antibiotics, such as cephalosporins. It can also participate in the synthesis of non natural amino acids, such as brominated amino acids.
2. Pesticide industry: It is a key intermediate for synthesizing certain highly efficient herbicides, such as bromobenzonitrile, and can also be used to prepare bromine containing organic fungicides and insecticides.
3. Dyes and photosensitive materials industry: can be used to synthesize certain azo dyes or fluorescent whitening agents. In photographic chemicals, it can also be used as a modifier or stabilizer.
4. Organic synthesis industry: Carboxylic acid derivatives such as bromoacetate and bromoacetamide can be generated through esterification, amidation, and other reactions. They can also participate in the synthesis of nitrogen-containing and sulfur-containing heterocycles, such as thiazole compounds, and can be used to prepare bromine containing functional surfactants.
5. Electroplating industry: In the electroplating industry, bromoacetic acid can be used as a brightener or stabilizer component, which helps to improve the electroplating effect and coating quality.
6. Polymer materials industry: It can be used as a modifier or crosslinking agent for polymer synthesis to improve the performance of polymer materials.
