Description

Cyclohexanecarboxamide, 2-(Hydroxymethyl)-, cis- (9Ci) is a specialized organic compound featuring a cis-configured cyclohexane ring substituted with both carboxamide and hydroxymethyl functional groups. This unique stereochemistry and bifunctional nature make it a valuable chiral building block and intermediate in advanced synthetic chemistry. It is primarily sought after by research institutions and industrial R&D departments engaged in the development of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and fine chemicals, where precise molecular architecture is critical for activity.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key chiral synthon in the research and synthesis of novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for central nervous system (CNS) or metabolic disorder targets.
• Agrochemical Research: Used in the development of new herbicides, fungicides, or plant growth regulators where the cyclohexane scaffold is a common structural motif.
• Ligand and Catalyst Synthesis: Acts as a precursor for creating chiral ligands or organocatalysts used in asymmetric synthesis to control stereoselectivity.
• Fine Chemical Production: Employed in the multistep synthesis of complex fragrance compounds, dyes, or other high-value specialty chemicals.
• Academic & Institutional Research: Utilized in chemical biology and medicinal chemistry programs for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies and library synthesis.
• Material Science Precursor: Potential use in synthesizing monomers or additives for specialized polymers with tailored properties.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). This compound may be hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); therefore, the container should be kept tightly sealed to minimize exposure to atmospheric humidity. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents.
