Description

4-Aminomethylphenylacetic Acid Ethyl Ester(Hcl) is an important pharmaceutical intermediate and fine chemical building block. Its value lies in its bifunctional structure, featuring both an amino group and an ester moiety, which makes it a versatile precursor for synthesizing more complex molecules. This compound is primarily needed by research institutions and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries for developing active ingredients and novel compounds.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key building block in the synthesis of peptide mimetics, enzyme inhibitors, and various active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used as a precursor in the development of novel herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Organic Synthesis Reagent: Serves as a versatile starting material for introducing the 4-(aminomethyl)phenylacetic acid scaffold into more complex molecular architectures.
• Bioconjugation & Linker Chemistry: The amine and ester functionalities allow it to act as a spacer or linker molecule in bioconjugation and prodrug strategies.
• Research & Development: Utilized in medicinal chemistry and chemical biology research for library synthesis and structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies.

Quality Control

Our 4-Aminomethylphenylacetic Acid Ethyl Ester(Hcl) is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing key parameters such as assay, impurity profile, and physical characteristics. Our quality commitment supports applications requiring high-purity intermediates.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
