Description

2-[4-(Trifluoromethyl)Pyridin-2-Yl]Ethanamine is a high-value trifluoromethylated pyridine derivative, serving as a critical building block in modern synthetic chemistry. Its core value lies in the unique combination of the pyridine scaffold and the trifluoromethyl group, which is essential for modulating the physicochemical properties of target molecules. This compound is primarily needed by research and development teams in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries for the synthesis of novel active ingredients, where it is used to introduce lipophilicity and metabolic stability.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key synthon for the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly in CNS, oncology, and anti-infective therapeutic areas.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the research and production of advanced herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides, where the CF3 group enhances biological activity and environmental persistence.
• Ligand & Catalyst Development: Serves as a precursor for nitrogen-containing ligands in transition metal catalysis and organocatalysis.
• Material Science Research: Employed in the synthesis of functionalized polymers, liquid crystals, and organic electronic materials.
• Chemical Biology Probes: Utilized as a building block for creating molecular probes and tags to study biological systems.
• Custom Synthesis & Contract Manufacturing: A vital starting material for custom synthesis projects and scale-up services for specialized chemical entities.

Quality Control

Our 2-[4-(Trifluoromethyl)Pyridin-2-Yl]Ethanamine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via NMR and MS, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and commercial synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed specifications are provided for every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent moisture absorption and degradation.
