Description

Rac-1-Palmitoyl-2-Linoleoyl-3-Chloropropanediol is a synthetic chlorinated diacylglycerol derivative, a high-purity chemical building block of significant interest in advanced research and development. Its value lies in its defined molecular structure, which combines saturated and unsaturated fatty acid chains with a reactive chloropropanediol backbone, enabling precise chemical modifications. This compound is primarily needed by pharmaceutical researchers and specialty chemical manufacturers for applications in lipid chemistry, prodrug synthesis, and as a precursor for novel surfactants or bioactive molecules.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key synthetic precursor for the development of novel lipid-based prodrugs and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Biochemical Research: Used as a substrate or standard in enzymatic studies, particularly those involving lipases or phospholipases, and in metabolic pathway research.
• Lipid Chemistry & Synthesis: A versatile building block for the custom synthesis of complex, structured lipids, glycerophospholipids, and other specialized lipid derivatives.
• Specialty Surfactant Development: Acts as a starting material for creating novel, biodegradable non-ionic or anionic surfactants with tailored properties.
• Reference Standard: Employed as a high-purity analytical standard for quality control and method development in chromatographic analysis of lipid mixtures.
• Material Science: Investigated for potential use in creating functionalized polymers or lipid nanoparticles for drug delivery systems.

Quality Control

Our Rac-1-Palmitoyl-2-Linoleoyl-3-Chloropropanediol is manufactured under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets exacting research-grade specifications. Comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, impurity profile, and analytical methods are provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. This compound is sensitive to strong acids and organic solvents; avoid contact and store separately from such materials. Allow the sealed container to reach room temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation.
