Description

Cyclooctane, Tetradecyl- CAS NO 149003-36-1 is a high-purity, long-chain alkyl-substituted cyclooctane derivative. This specialty hydrocarbon is valued for its unique combination of a rigid cyclic core and a flexible, lipophilic tetradecyl chain, making it an effective intermediate and performance additive. It is primarily sought by R&D laboratories and industrial manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced material sectors for synthesis and formulation.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and prodrugs, leveraging its lipophilic character to modulate bioavailability.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Serves as a key building block for creating specialized surfactants, adjuvants, and active compounds with tailored hydrophobic properties.
• Advanced Material Precursor: Acts as a monomer or modifier in the production of specialty polymers, resins, and liquid crystals to alter thermal and mechanical properties.
• Lubricant & Fuel Additive: Functions as a high-performance additive to improve viscosity index, stability, and lubricity in synthetic oils and specialty fuels.
• Organic Synthesis & Catalysis: Employed as a standard or custom substrate in catalytic hydrogenation studies and organic transformation research.
• Flavor & Fragrance Industry: Utilized as a starting material for the synthesis of complex macrocyclic musk compounds and other fragrance ingredients.
