Application and positioning
Bromine on the anthraquinone ring rather than on a side chain: it survives the quinone chemistry and can be coupled afterwards. It is the entry to 2-substituted anthraquinone dyes and, after reduction, to anthracene-based hosts. Laurand supplies it from audited Chinese producers in kilogram to multi-hundred-kilogram lots, with the documentation your market requires.
Quality and documentation
- Batch-specific Certificate of Analysis with HPLC or GC purity and a full impurity profile
- Trace metal report (Pd, Fe, Cu) on request — residual catalyst is what limits OLED device lifetime
- Water content by Karl Fischer and residual solvent data for solution-processed grades
- SDS in the language of your market, with GHS classification for the destination
- Pre-shipment sample for laboratory approval on first orders
Packaging and handling
- 1 kg, 5 kg and 25 kg fibre drums with inner PE liner; amber glass bottles for gram to kilogram quantities on request
- Sealed and protected from light — aromatic OLED intermediates discolour under prolonged UV exposure
- Store at ambient temperature in a dry, dark warehouse, away from strong oxidising agents
