2-Bromophenol is an aromatic halogenated phenol compound commonly used as a building block in organic synthesis. It is an ortho-substituted bromophenol, where a bromine atom is attached to the benzene ring at the second position relative to the hydroxyl group (-OH). The presence of both hydroxyl and halogen groups makes it a versatile reagent in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and fine chemicals.
