Description

5-Bromo-n-Ethylnicotinamide is a high-purity brominated nicotinamide derivative, serving as a critical pharmaceutical intermediate and versatile building block in organic synthesis. Its value lies in its unique molecular structure, which enables the introduction of both bromine and an ethyl-substituted amide functional group into target molecules, facilitating the development of novel compounds. This product is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced material science industries seeking to develop new active ingredients and fine chemicals.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key precursor in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for neurological and metabolic disorder treatments.
• Agrochemical Research: Used in the development of new herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Organic Synthesis Building Block: Employed in cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki, Buchwald-Hartwig) to create complex heterocyclic compounds.
• Ligand and Catalyst Development: Serves as a starting material for synthesizing specialized ligands used in catalytic systems.
• Material Science: Investigated for the creation of organic electronic materials and photoactive compounds.
• Biochemical Tool Compound: Utilized in life science research to study enzyme inhibition and cellular pathways.

Quality Control

Our 5-Bromo-n-Ethylnicotinamide is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, NMR and IR for structural confirmation, and residual solvent analysis, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and commercial synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided with every shipment and are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
