Description

Cyclopropanecarboxylic Acid, Oxiranylmethyl Ester (9Ci) is a specialized bifunctional chemical intermediate containing both a cyclopropane ring and an oxirane (epoxide) moiety. This unique structure makes it a valuable building block for synthesizing advanced materials and fine chemicals with tailored properties. It is primarily sought after by R&D chemists and process engineers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and polymer industries for introducing cyclopropane and reactive epoxy groups into target molecules.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for constructing complex molecular architectures.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Serves as a key precursor for developing novel herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides with enhanced activity.
• Polymer & Resin Modification: Acts as a cross-linking agent or monomer for producing epoxy resins, adhesives, and coatings with improved chemical resistance and mechanical strength.
• Fine Chemical Production: Employed in the manufacture of specialty chemicals, flavors, and fragrances requiring cyclopropane functionalization.
• Material Science Research: Utilized in R&D for creating novel polymers, dendrimers, and liquid crystalline materials.

Quality Control

Our Cyclopropanecarboxylic Acid, Oxiranylmethyl Ester is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopy, to ensure high purity and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong acids, bases, and oxidizing agents. Due to its nature as a strong acid/organic solvent, ensure containers are kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture ingress and maintain chemical integrity.
