6-Bromo-1-methyl-1H-indazole(CAS: 590417-94-0)

6-Bromo-1-methyl-1H-indazole is a solid with a crystalline form. Its molecular weight is approximately 228.03 g/mol. It has low solubility in water but is more soluble in polar organic solvents. It is slightly reactive towards strong bases and is stable under normal conditions. It is used in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and functional materials.

6-Bromo-1-methyl-1H-indazole is synthesized through the bromination of 1-methyl-1H-indazole. This process typically involves using bromine in the presence of a catalyst such as N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) in an appropriate solvent like dichloromethane. The reaction is carried out at room temperature, and the product is isolated by recrystallization.

6-Bromo-1-methyl-1H-indazole is used in the pharmaceutical industry for the synthesis of certain drugs. It is also employed in the development of sensors and semiconductors due to its unique electronic properties. Additionally, it has potential applications in the polymer industry as a precursor for functional materials.

When handling 6-Bromo-1-methyl-1H-indazole, appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and safety goggles should be worn. It should be handled in a fume hood to avoid inhalation. Spills should be cleaned up using appropriate absorbent materials and disposed of according to local regulations. Always refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed handling and disposal instructions.
