Description

4-(1-Hydroxyethyl)Benzamide is a versatile organic compound featuring both a benzamide core and a hydroxymethyl functional group. This bifunctional structure makes it a valuable pharmaceutical intermediate and a key building block in advanced organic synthesis. It is primarily utilized by research institutions and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical industries for developing new active ingredients and specialty materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key precursor in the synthesis of novel drug candidates, particularly those targeting central nervous system (CNS) disorders or metabolic diseases.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Serves as a building block for developing new herbicides, fungicides, or plant growth regulators.
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Material Research: Used in the development of advanced organic electronic materials due to its rigid aromatic structure and modifiable functional groups.
• Polymer Modification: Acts as a monomer or cross-linking agent for creating specialty polymers with enhanced thermal or mechanical properties.
• Organic Synthesis Reagent: Employed in academic and industrial R&D for constructing complex molecules, leveraging the reactivity of both the amide and alcohol groups.
• Bioconjugation & Linker Chemistry: Useful in proteomics and diagnostic assay development for attaching labels or probes to biomolecules.

Quality Control

Our 4-(1-Hydroxyethyl)Benzamide is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation by IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and production. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
