Description

2,2',2'',2'''-((Ethene-1,1,2,2-Tetrayltetrakis(Benzene-4,1-Diyl))Tetrakis(Oxy))Tetraacetic Acid is a sophisticated, multi-functional organic compound featuring a central ethylene core symmetrically extended by four benzene rings, each terminated with a carboxylic acid group via an ether linkage. This unique structure makes it an exceptionally versatile chelating agent and molecular building block for advanced materials. It is primarily sought by researchers and manufacturers in the fields of coordination chemistry, polymer science, and specialty chemical synthesis for developing novel functional materials.

Application

• Metal Chelation & Sequestration: Acts as a powerful multidentate ligand for binding a wide range of metal ions, useful in water treatment, catalysis, and analytical chemistry.
• Polymer Modification & Cross-linking Agent: Serves as a functional monomer or cross-linker to introduce carboxyl groups into polymer backbones, enhancing properties like hydrophilicity, adhesion, and metal-binding capacity.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of complex drug molecules, particularly those requiring precise metal coordination or targeted delivery systems.
• Material Science Research: A key precursor for constructing Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs), and other porous materials with tailored properties for gas storage or separation.
• Surface Functionalization: Employed to modify the surface of nanoparticles, silica, or other substrates with carboxylic acid groups for improved dispersion, biocompatibility, or further chemical conjugation.
• Analytical Reagent: Utilized in the development of sensors and chromatographic stationary phases due to its selective ion-binding characteristics.

Quality Control

Our production of 2,2',2'',2'''-((Ethene-1,1,2,2-Tetrayltetrakis(Benzene-4,1-Diyl))Tetrakis(Oxy))Tetraacetic Acid adheres to stringent internal quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot is characterized using advanced analytical techniques including HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to support your R&D and quality assurance processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect purity and stability. Keep away from strong acids and incompatible materials.
