Description

(2S)-2-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)Propanoic Acid is the pure S-enantiomer of the widely used phenoxy herbicide 2,4-DP (dichlorprop). This specific stereoisomer is of significant interest due to its targeted biological activity and serves as a critical chiral intermediate and reference standard. It is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the agrochemical and fine chemical sectors who require high-purity, stereochemically defined compounds for product development, synthesis, and analytical purposes.

Application

• Chiral Intermediate for the synthesis of advanced enantiopure agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals.
• Analytical Reference Standard for method development, calibration, and quality control in HPLC and GC analysis.
• Herbicide Research to study the structure-activity relationship and environmental fate of phenoxy acid herbicides.
• Biochemical Studies investigating the mechanism of action of auxin-like plant growth regulators.
• Process Chemistry for developing and scaling up stereoselective manufacturing routes.
