China and the United States are the leading exporters of 1-Bromobutane, accounting for a substantial share of global supply, while India, Germany, and South Korea represent the largest importers. Import volumes into Asia-Pacific markets have risen steadily since 2022, coinciding with moderate upward pressure on 1-Bromobutane prices amid tightening regional supply chains.
1-Bromobutane is a colorless to pale yellow, volatile liquid with a chloroform-like odor. It is an alkyl halide (specifically, a primary bromide) and organic chemical intermediate, with a boiling point of approximately 101–103 °C and a melting point near –112 °C. It is widely employed as a building block in organic synthesis for introducing the butyl group, particularly in the preparation of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and specialty chemicals. Key applications include its use in the synthesis of quaternary ammonium compounds, flavor and fragrance ingredients, and as a precursor to butyl ethers and esters in coatings and polymer additives.
1-Bromobutane is used in the synthesis of procaine and tetracaine.
