Description

14-Pentadecyn-1-ol is a long-chain terminal acetylenic alcohol with a defined 15-carbon backbone. This compound is a valuable chemical intermediate prized for its unique reactivity, particularly in click chemistry and metal-catalyzed coupling reactions. It is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors seeking to build complex molecular architectures.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key building block for synthesizing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug candidates via Huisgen cycloaddition (click chemistry) and Sonogashira coupling.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of specialized surfactants, adjuvants, and active ingredients that require a hydrophobic chain with a reactive terminal alkyne group.
• Polymer & Material Science: Serves as a monomer or functional modifier for creating specialty polymers, dendrimers, and surface coatings with tailored properties.
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Materials: Acts as a precursor for mesogens and organic electronic materials where molecular length and rigidity are critical.
• Organic Synthesis Reagent: Employed in academic and industrial R&D for constructing carbon-carbon bonds and introducing long alkyl chains into target molecules.
• Lubricant & Surfactant Additive: Functions as a precursor for high-performance additives that modify viscosity, friction, and surface activity.
