Description

Oxiranemethanol, 3-Ethenyl--α--Methyl- (9Ci) is a specialized epoxide derivative with a reactive vinyl group, serving as a high-value chemical intermediate. Its unique bifunctional structure, combining an oxirane ring with an unsaturated side chain, makes it a versatile building block for advanced synthesis. This compound is essential for R&D chemists and process engineers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty polymer industries seeking to introduce both epoxy and polymerizable functionalities into target molecules.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key precursor in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for compounds requiring epoxy or hydroxyl functional groups.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of novel herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators where its reactive sites allow for structural diversification.
• Specialty Polymer & Resin Production: Serves as a monomer or cross-linking agent for creating epoxy resins, coatings, and adhesives with tailored properties like enhanced durability or chemical resistance.
• Fine Chemical Manufacturing: Employed in multi-step organic synthesis to construct complex molecular architectures for flavors, fragrances, and electronic chemicals.
• Cross-linking Agent: Utilized in formulations for thermosetting plastics, elastomers, and composite materials to improve mechanical strength and thermal stability.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: A valuable reagent for exploring new chemical reactions and developing novel materials in research laboratories.

Quality Control

Our Oxiranemethanol, 3-Ethenyl--α--Methyl- (9Ci) is produced under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed specifications, including assay by GC/HPLC, impurity profile, and physical characterization. Our quality commitment ensures the material meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and incompatible materials such as strong acids, bases, and oxidizing agents.
