Description

1-(((S)-2-(Bromomethyl)-3-Methylbutoxy)Methyl)Benzene is a chiral, non-racemic organic building block of significant interest in advanced synthetic chemistry. This compound matters for its role as a key intermediate in the stereoselective synthesis of complex molecules, particularly in pharmaceutical research and development. It is primarily needed by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries for constructing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and other high-value chiral targets.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A critical chiral synthon for the synthesis of novel therapeutic agents, including protease inhibitors and other small molecule drugs.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the research and development of chiral pesticides and herbicides where specific stereochemistry is required for biological activity.
• Ligand and Catalyst Preparation: Serves as a precursor for the development of chiral ligands and organocatalysts used in asymmetric synthesis.
• Material Science Research: Employed in the creation of chiral monomers for advanced polymers and functional materials.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: A valuable tool for methodological development in organic chemistry, enabling new routes to complex stereocenters.

Quality Control

Our production of 1-(((S)-2-(Bromomethyl)-3-Methylbutoxy)Methyl)Benzene adheres to stringent quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high chiral purity, critical for sensitive synthetic applications. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each batch, detailing key parameters such as chiral purity (enantiomeric excess), chemical purity, and identity confirmation. Our quality management system supports compliance with cGMP and ICH guidelines where required for pharmaceutical development.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to the bromomethyl functional group, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere for long-term stability.
