Description

(R)-(+)-2-Phenoxypropionic Acid CAS NO 1129-46-0 is a high-purity chiral carboxylic acid derivative, serving as a critical building block in asymmetric synthesis. Its single enantiomer configuration is essential for producing optically active compounds with high stereoselectivity. This intermediate is primarily needed by the pharmaceutical industry for the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), agrochemicals, and advanced material science research.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key chiral synthon for the synthesis of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and other enantiomerically pure APIs.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of chiral herbicides and pesticides where biological activity is stereospecific.
• Ligand and Catalyst Preparation: Serves as a precursor for chiral ligands used in asymmetric catalysis, such as in hydrogenation or cross-coupling reactions.
• Fine Chemical Production: Employed in the manufacture of specialty chemicals, flavors, and fragrances requiring high optical purity.
• Academic and R&D: A valuable reagent for research in organic chemistry and medicinal chemistry for exploring new synthetic pathways.
