Description

Diethylglycine Hydrochloride is a high-purity organic salt derivative of glycine, where both hydrogen atoms on the amino group are substituted by ethyl groups. This compound serves as a crucial building block and intermediate in advanced organic synthesis and pharmaceutical research. It is essential for manufacturers and R&D laboratories in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical sectors seeking reliable, high-quality synthetic precursors.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key precursor in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for compounds requiring a modified amino acid backbone.
• Biochemical Research: Used as a substrate or inhibitor in enzymatic studies and metabolic pathway research.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Serves as a building block for developing novel herbicides, pesticides, and plant growth regulators.
• Peptide Mimetics: Incorporated into peptide chains to alter physicochemical properties and biological activity.
• Ligand and Catalyst Preparation: Utilized in the preparation of chiral ligands for asymmetric catalysis and metal complexation.
• Surface Active Agent Production: Intermediate for synthesizing specific betaine-type surfactants and amphoteric compounds.

Quality Control

Our Diethylglycine Hydrochloride is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, purity assay, and impurity profiling, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting batch-specific results are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product stability and handling properties.
