Description

Bicyclo[2.2.1]Hept-5-Ene-2-Carboxaldehyde, 7-Acetyl-, (Endo,Syn)- (9Ci) CAS NO 188717-62-6 is a high-purity, functionalized norbornene derivative characterized by its specific endo,syn stereochemistry and reactive aldehyde and ketone functional groups. This compound is a critical chiral building block and advanced intermediate for synthesizing complex molecules in pharmaceutical and fine chemical research. It is primarily sought after by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries for applications in asymmetric synthesis, catalysis, and material science.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key chiral synthon for the development of novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly in central nervous system (CNS) and antiviral drug candidates.
• Asymmetric Synthesis: Utilized as a precursor for chiral ligands, auxiliaries, and catalysts in stereoselective organic transformations.
• Polymer Chemistry: Acts as a functional monomer for the synthesis of specialty polymers with tailored properties via ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) or other addition polymerizations.
• Agrochemical Research: Employed in the synthesis of novel herbicides, fungicides, or plant growth regulators that require a rigid, bicyclic framework.
• Material Science: Used to create advanced organic materials, such as liquid crystals or photoactive compounds, leveraging its rigid structure and reactive sites.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: A valuable tool for methodological development in organic chemistry and for exploring new chemical spaces in discovery chemistry.
