Guan, Lijiang; Cheng, Guang; Tan, Bien; Jin, Shangbin published their research in Chemical Communications (Cambridge, United Kingdom) in 2021. The article was titled 《Covalent triazine frameworks formation via benzyl halide monomers forming photocatalyst for biomass reforming hydrogen evolution》.Application In Synthesis of 1,4-Bis(bromomethyl)benzene The article contains the following contents:
Here we report the synthesis of covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) using benzyl halide monomers which are more cost-effective and with higher availability than previous ones. The resulting CTFs were successfully applied for efficient photocatalytic reforming of glucose for the first time, with a high hydrogen evolution rate up to 330μmol g-1 h-1 under pH = 12. This work presented a new way to synthesize CTFs and further exhibited their potential applications in photocatalytic biomass reforming. In addition to this study using 1,4-Bis(bromomethyl)benzene, there are many other studies that have used 1,4-Bis(bromomethyl)benzene(cas: 623-24-5Application In Synthesis of 1,4-Bis(bromomethyl)benzene) was used in this study.
1,4-Bis(bromomethyl)benzene(cas: 623-24-5) belongs to organobromine compounds.Most of the natural organobromine compounds are produced by marine organisms , and several brominated metabolites with antibacterial , antitumor , antiviral , and antifungal activity have been isolated from seaweed, sponges, corals, molluscs, and others. Moreover, several studies demonstrate that the average proportion of bromine in drugs is significantly higher than that in natural products. Application In Synthesis of 1,4-Bis(bromomethyl)benzene
