Description

9-Hydroxy-13E-Labden-15-Oic Acid is a labdane-type diterpenoid carboxylic acid characterized by its specific hydroxyl and olefinic functional groups. This compound serves as a valuable chemical intermediate and research standard for the synthesis of more complex natural product derivatives and bioactive molecules. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical R&D laboratories, flavor & fragrance houses, and academic institutions engaged in organic and medicinal chemistry.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key chiral building block for the synthesis of novel drug candidates and natural product analogs.
• Flavor & Fragrance Ingredient: Used in research and development of complex, ambery, and woody scent profiles due to its labdane skeleton.
• Chemical Reference Standard: Serves as a high-purity analytical standard for quality control and method development in analytical laboratories.
• Academic & Industrial Research: Employed in studies exploring structure-activity relationships (SAR), biosynthesis pathways, and catalytic transformations of diterpenoids.
• Agrochemical Research: Investigated as a potential lead compound or intermediate for developing new plant growth regulators or protective agents.
