Description

n-Acetoxysuccinimide CAS NO 14464-29-0 is a versatile and highly reactive acetylating agent used in organic synthesis and peptide chemistry. Its primary value lies in its ability to efficiently transfer an acetyl group under mild conditions, enabling the protection of amines and the synthesis of complex molecules. This compound is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical industries, particularly for developing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and advanced intermediates.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate Synthesis: Key reagent for the acetylation of amino groups in the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug candidates.
• Peptide Chemistry: Used for the selective protection of amino acids during solid-phase and solution-phase peptide synthesis.
• Bioconjugation: Facilitates the labeling and modification of proteins, antibodies, and other biomolecules for diagnostic and research applications.
• Polymer Chemistry: Acts as a functional monomer or modifying agent in the synthesis of specialty polymers with tailored properties.
• Agrochemical Manufacturing: Employed in the synthesis of advanced herbicide and pesticide intermediates.
• Material Science: Used in surface modification and the creation of functionalized materials for specialized coatings.

Quality Control

Our n-Acetoxysuccinimide is produced under strict quality management protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and purity determination, to meet the stringent requirements of research and industrial applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which can compromise product integrity. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and amines.
