2-Bromo-5-isopropoxybenzaldehyde is an isopropoxy analog of the natural product suzukol. It has been synthesized by a novel methodology involving oxidative bromination of the phenylacetone. This compound has been used as a model for the synthesis of 2,3,4,5-tetrahydrobenzofuran and can be used as a starting material for the synthesis of other natural products.
