Description

Ethyl 2-(1-Aminocyclopropyl)Acetate is a specialized organic compound featuring a unique cyclopropylamine moiety integrated with an ethyl acetate backbone. This structure makes it a valuable and versatile building block for the synthesis of complex molecules, particularly in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical sectors. It is primarily sought after by research chemists and process development scientists for constructing novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and advanced intermediates.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key synthon for the development of novel drug candidates, particularly those targeting central nervous system (CNS) disorders and infectious diseases.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the research and production of advanced pesticides and herbicides, where the cyclopropyl group can impart specific biological activity.
• Chemical Research & Development: Serves as a versatile precursor in organic synthesis for constructing complex, strained-ring systems in academic and industrial R&D settings.
• Ligand and Catalyst Development: The amine functionality allows for its use in creating novel ligands for asymmetric catalysis and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs).
• Fine Chemical Production: Employed in the multi-step synthesis of specialty chemicals, flavors, and fragrances requiring specific stereochemistry.

Quality Control

Our Ethyl 2-(1-Aminocyclopropyl)Acetate is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation by NMR and IR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and process chemistry. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term storage to prevent oxidation and hydrolysis.
