Description

1-Methyl-5-Pentyl-5-Phenylbarbituric Acid is a specialized barbiturate derivative with a unique pentyl and phenyl substitution pattern. This compound is valued for its role as a key synthetic intermediate in advanced pharmaceutical research and development. It is primarily sought after by research institutions and fine chemical manufacturers engaged in the synthesis of novel therapeutic agents, central nervous system (CNS) active compounds, and for use in analytical reference standards.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A critical building block in the synthesis of novel barbiturate-based active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and potential therapeutic candidates.
• Chemical Research & Development: Used in academic and industrial R&D for studying structure-activity relationships (SAR) of barbiturates and related heterocyclic compounds.
• Reference Standard: Serves as a high-purity analytical standard for quality control and method development in pharmaceutical and forensic laboratories.
• Precursor for Specialty Chemicals: Employed in the synthesis of more complex molecules for pharmacological screening and biochemical studies.

Quality Control

Our 1-Methyl-5-Pentyl-5-Phenylbarbituric Acid is manufactured under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR and NMR for structural confirmation, and residual solvent analysis. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications and test results is provided to ensure traceability and compliance with your research or manufacturing requirements.

Storage

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