Description

7-(Iodoethyl)Tridecane CAS NO 1114453-23-4 is a specialized organic iodide compound characterized by its long alkyl chain and reactive iodoethyl functional group. This unique structure makes it a valuable intermediate for synthesizing complex molecules, particularly in advanced material science and pharmaceutical research. It is primarily sought by R&D chemists and process engineers in the fine chemical, agrochemical, and liquid crystal industries for applications requiring precise molecular modification and functionalization.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug candidates, particularly where a long alkyl chain spacer or a halogen handle for further coupling is required.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Serves as a key building block in the production of specialized pesticides, herbicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Liquid Crystal Materials: Acts as a precursor in the manufacture of liquid crystal compounds for display technologies, leveraging its alkyl chain length and terminal reactivity.
• Organic Synthesis & Catalysis: Employed as an alkylating agent or a substrate in cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Negishi, Kumada) to construct more complex carbon frameworks.
• Material Science Research: Utilized in the development of surfactants, lubricant additives, and other specialty chemicals where specific chain length and terminal functionality are critical.
• Chemical Biology Probes: Can be used to create labeled compounds or probes for studying biological membranes and protein interactions due to its lipophilic nature.
