Description

3-Furancarboxaldehyde, Tetrahydro-2,5-Dimethoxy-, [2S-(2Alpha,3Alpha,5Alpha)]- (9Ci) is a chiral, stereochemically defined furan derivative that serves as a valuable synthetic building block. Its defined stereochemistry and functionalized furan ring make it a critical intermediate for the synthesis of complex molecules in pharmaceutical and fine chemical research. This compound is primarily sought by R&D chemists and process development scientists working in asymmetric synthesis, medicinal chemistry, and the development of novel agrochemicals and flavors/fragrances.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key chiral synthon for the research and development of new active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly in projects requiring stereochemical control.
• Asymmetric Catalyst Ligand Precursor: Used in the synthesis of novel chiral ligands for transition metal catalysis, enabling enantioselective transformations.
• Agrochemical Research: Serves as a building block for developing new crop protection agents and herbicides with specific stereoisomeric activity.
• Flavor & Fragrance Chemistry: Acts as a precursor for creating complex, naturally-derived aroma molecules and specialty flavoring agents.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: Employed in methodological studies and the discovery of new synthetic routes due to its unique furan-carboxaldehyde structure.
• Material Science Research: Investigated as a monomer or functional component in the synthesis of specialized polymers and advanced materials.

Quality Control

Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Each batch is characterized using advanced analytical techniques including HPLC, GC, NMR, and chiral analysis to confirm identity, purity, and stereochemical integrity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all relevant specifications are available upon request. We adhere to a cGMP-compliant quality management system for production and documentation, ensuring traceability and reliability for research and development applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry place. Recommended long-term storage temperature is 2-8°C. Allow the container to reach ambient temperature before opening to minimize moisture ingress. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
