Description

Cyclopentanecarbonitrile, 2-(Acetyloxy)-, (1S,2R)- (9Ci) is a high-purity, stereochemically defined chiral intermediate of significant importance in advanced organic synthesis. This compound matters because it provides a critical, enantiomerically pure building block for constructing complex molecular architectures with precise three-dimensional control. Pharmaceutical and agrochemical research organizations need it for the development of novel active ingredients, particularly in the synthesis of prostaglandin analogs and other bioactive molecules where the (1S,2R) configuration is essential for biological activity.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key chiral synthon in the research and development of prostaglandin-based therapeutics and other small-molecule drugs.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in creating enantiomerically pure active ingredients for advanced crop protection agents.
• Asymmetric Catalysis Research: Serves as a valuable substrate or ligand precursor in the development of new catalytic systems.
• Fine Chemical Production: Employed in the multi-step synthesis of complex, high-value specialty chemicals requiring specific stereochemistry.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: Utilized in methodological studies and process chemistry for constructing chiral cyclopentane frameworks.
