Methyl 5-bromo-2-iodobenzoate is a high-purity halogenated aromatic ester (CAS: 101687-43-4, Formula: C8H6BrIO2) synthesized via selective iodination of methyl 5-bromobenzoate. This intermediate serves as a critical building block for cross-coupling reactions in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Strictly store under inert atmosphere at controlled temperatures below 25°C. Personnel must utilize full PPE including nitrile gloves and respirators due to potential respiratory sensitization and environmental toxicity risks associated with heavy halogens.
