Description

Methyl 3-Bromo-4-Cyclohexylbenzoate CAS NO 1131594-38-1 is a high-purity, synthetically valuable benzoate ester derivative, serving as a critical building block in advanced organic synthesis. Its core value lies in providing a versatile molecular scaffold with both a bromo substituent for further functionalization and a cyclohexyl group that imparts specific steric and lipophilic properties. This compound is essential for researchers and process chemists in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries, where it is used to develop novel active ingredients and fine chemicals.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key precursor in the synthesis of complex drug candidates, particularly those targeting central nervous system (CNS) disorders or inflammatory pathways.
• Agrochemical Research: Building block for developing new-generation herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators with enhanced efficacy and selectivity.
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Material Synthesis: Used in the creation of advanced organic electronic materials due to its rigid-rod-like structure and potential for further derivatization.
• Organic Ligand & Catalyst Development: Serves as a starting material for synthesizing specialized ligands used in asymmetric catalysis and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs).
• Custom Synthesis & Contract Manufacturing: Supplied to CDMOs (Contract Development and Manufacturing Organizations) for custom synthesis projects requiring high-purity, specialized intermediates.
• Academic & R&D Laboratories: Utilized in universities and corporate R&D centers for methodological studies in cross-coupling reactions and novel ring-forming transformations.
