1-Iodobutane 99%, stabilised with copper

What is 1-Iodobutane? 1-Iodobutane is an organic compound with the molecular formula C4H9I. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. It belongs to the class of alkyl halides and is an important chemical reagent used in organic synthesis. Due to the presence of the iodine atom, 1-iodobutane is highly reactive and plays a crucial role in substitution reactions, particularly in the formation of carbon-carbon bonds. It is a flammable liquid and should be handled with caution, especially around heat or open flames.

Commonly used in the synthesis of more complex molecules in industries such as pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and specialty chemicals. Its ability to undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions makes it a useful building block in the preparation of alkylated compounds.
