Description

(S)-Cyclohex-2-Enecarboxylic Acid CAS NO 149055-85-6 is a high-purity, single-enantiomer chiral building block essential for asymmetric synthesis. Its unique stereochemistry and reactive alkene-carboxylic acid functionality make it a versatile intermediate for constructing complex molecular architectures. This compound is particularly valuable for pharmaceutical research and development, serving as a key precursor in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), agrochemicals, and advanced materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A critical chiral synthon for the research and production of enantiomerically pure drugs, particularly in central nervous system (CNS) and anti-inflammatory therapeutic areas.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of novel, stereoselective pesticides and herbicides where specific chirality enhances biological activity and reduces environmental impact.
• Asymmetric Catalysis Ligand Precursor: Serves as a starting material for synthesizing chiral ligands and organocatalysts used in enantioselective transformations.
• Fine Chemical & Specialty Material Production: Employed in the manufacture of advanced polymers, liquid crystals, and other performance chemicals requiring precise stereochemical control.
• Academic & Contract Research: A valuable reagent for methodological development in organic chemistry and medicinal chemistry research within academic and industrial R&D laboratories.
