Description

2-Octynal 97 is a high-purity aldehyde derivative characterized by its terminal alkyne and aldehyde functional groups, making it a versatile and valuable building block in organic synthesis. Its primary commercial value lies in its role as a key intermediate for the production of fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and advanced materials. This compound is particularly essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fragrance industries who require precise and reactive intermediates for complex molecular construction.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a crucial building block in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), especially those requiring alkyne and aldehyde moieties for further functionalization.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of advanced pesticides, herbicides, and plant growth regulators where its reactive groups enable the creation of specific bioactive structures.
• Fragrance and Flavor Ingredient: Acts as a precursor for synthesizing specific aroma chemicals, contributing to complex scent profiles in perfumery and flavor formulations.
• Material Science Research: Employed in the development of novel polymers, dendrimers, and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) due to its ability to participate in click chemistry and other coupling reactions.
• Organic Synthesis Reagent: A valuable reagent for academic and industrial R&D in reactions such as Sonogashira coupling, nucleophilic addition, and reductive amination.
• Liquid Crystal and Electronic Material Precursor: Used in the synthesis of organic semiconductors and liquid crystal compounds for display technologies.

Quality Control

Our 2-Octynal 97 is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC, HPLC, and NMR, to ensure it meets the declared 97% minimum purity and stringent impurity profile specifications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and safety parameters is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency for your critical processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at 2-8°C to minimize oxidation and volatility. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed and handled with appropriate precautions to prevent loss of product and maintain stability.
