Bromo(monohydroxy)phenyl mercapturic acids. A new class of mercapturic acids from bromobenzene-treated rats was written by Zheng, Jiang;Hanzlik, Robert P.. And the article was included in Drug Metabolism and Disposition in 1992.Application In Synthesis of 4-Amino-3-bromophenol This article mentions the following:
Alk. permethylation and GC/MS anal. of urinary mercapturic acids from rats given bromobenzene yielded several quinone-derived bromodimethoxythioanisole isomers as expected. Unexpectedly, seven bromomonomethoxythioanisole isomers were also observed, suggesting the presence of bromomonohydroxyphenyl mercapturic acids in the urine. Alk. permethylation of synthetic 4- and 5-bromo-2-hydroxyphenyl mercapturic acid gave 4- and 5-bromo-2-methoxythioanisole, resp., which were also observed after alk. permethylation of urine from bromobenzene-treated rats, as was 2-bromo-4-methoxythioanisole. To explore the biosynthetic origin of the bromomonohydroxyphenyl mercapturic acids, rats were sep. dosed i.p. with synthetic racemic 2-, 3-, or 4-bromophenyl mercapturic acid, or biosynthetic
4-Amino-3-bromophenol (cas: 74440-80-5) belongs to organobromine compounds. Organo bromine compounds are versatile compounds and are widely used in diverse fields. Organo bromine derivatives are used in the dye sector, as an indicator in analytical chemistry (Bromothymol blue is a popular indicator). Bromine-containing agents predominate because not only are they more efficient than similar chlorine-containing species, but also the high atomic weight of bromine ensures that it is present in a high mass fraction within most organobromine compounds.Application In Synthesis of 4-Amino-3-bromophenol
