Description

Dl-Methionine Methylsulfonium Bromide, 99 CAS NO 2766-51-0 is a high-purity, organosulfur compound widely recognized as a source of active methyl groups and a precursor to S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe). This material is essential for biochemical research and pharmaceutical synthesis where precise methylation processes are critical. It serves as a key intermediate for manufacturers and R&D laboratories in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and fine chemical sectors.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A crucial building block in the synthesis of S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe) and other methyl-donor therapeutics.
• Biochemical Research: Used in enzymatic studies, metabolic pathway analysis, and as a standard in analytical chemistry.
• Nutraceutical Precursor: Serves as a starting material for the production of high-grade dietary supplements targeting liver health and joint function.
• Organic Synthesis: Employed in the preparation of specialized sulfonium salts and other organosulfur compounds for advanced material science.
• Reference Standard: Utilized as a certified reference material (CRM) in quality control laboratories for method validation and calibration.

Quality Control

Our Dl-Methionine Methylsulfonium Bromide is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch is tested to ensure it meets the high-purity specification of 99% and complies with relevant standards for research and pharmaceutical intermediates. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA), detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles, is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
