Description

6-(11-Hydroxydodecyl)-2-(Hydroxymethyl)Piperidin-3-Ol is a high-purity, multi-functional organic compound featuring both a long aliphatic chain and a substituted piperidine ring. This unique structure makes it a valuable intermediate for the synthesis of complex molecules, particularly in advanced pharmaceutical and specialty chemical applications. It is essential for researchers and manufacturers developing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), surfactants, and novel polymers. The compound is supplied under strict quality control to ensure batch-to-batch consistency for critical R&D and production processes.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key building block in the synthesis of complex drug molecules, particularly those targeting neurological or metabolic pathways.
• Surfactant & Detergent Chemistry: Serves as a precursor for synthesizing novel non-ionic surfactants with specific hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) properties.
• Polymer Modification: Used to introduce functional hydroxyl groups into polymer chains, enhancing properties like adhesion, cross-linking, and biocompatibility.
• Liquid Crystal & Advanced Material Research: The long alkyl chain and rigid piperidine core make it a candidate for research into new liquid crystal compounds and organic electronic materials.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care Ingredients: Acts as an intermediate for producing conditioning agents, emulsifiers, and viscosity modifiers in high-end formulations.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Utilized in the development of new crop protection agents and plant growth regulators.

Quality Control

Our 6-(11-Hydroxydodecyl)-2-(Hydroxymethyl)Piperidin-3-Ol is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for pharmaceutical and research applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and test results are provided and available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept in a cool, dry place. For long-term storage, maintain at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C) under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent oxidation and moisture absorption. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
