Description

2-Oxabicyclo[4.1.0]Heptane-7-Carboxylicacid,Methylester,(1Alpha,6Alpha,7Alpha)-(9Ci) is a high-purity, specialized bicyclic organic compound featuring a unique oxirane (epoxide) ring fused to a cyclohexane framework. This structural complexity makes it a valuable advanced pharmaceutical intermediate and a versatile chiral building block for synthesizing complex molecules. It is primarily utilized by research institutions and fine chemical manufacturers engaged in the development of novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and agrochemicals.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key chiral synthon in the synthesis of complex drug candidates, particularly those requiring stereochemical control.
• Agrochemical Research: Used in the development of novel herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides where its bicyclic structure imparts specific biological activity.
• Organic Synthesis: Serves as a versatile precursor for ring-opening reactions, leveraging the reactivity of the epoxide moiety to introduce functional groups.
• Material Science: Potential monomer or cross-linking agent in the development of specialty polymers with tailored properties.
• Academic & R&D: Employed in methodological studies and as a reference standard in chemical research exploring strained ring systems.
