General description

2-Bromo-1-indanone is a halogenated indanone. It can be obtained via bromination of 1-indanone.

Application

2-Bromo-1-indanone may be used in the preparation of trans-2-benzal-1-indanone epoxide via Darzens-type condensation with benzaldehyde. It may also be employed as substrate to investigate the substrate specificity of recombinant β-keto ester reductase (KER) of Penicillium citrinum.
