Description

5,10-Diethyltetradec-7-yne-6,9-diol is a specialized aliphatic diol containing a central alkyne functional group, identified by CAS number 25430-52-8. This unique molecular architecture makes it a valuable intermediate for synthesizing complex organic molecules, particularly in the development of specialty polymers, surfactants, and pharmaceutical agents. It is primarily sought by R&D chemists and process engineers in the fine chemical, advanced material, and life science industries for its bifunctional reactivity and potential as a building block for novel compounds.

Application

• Polymer Chemistry: Serves as a monomer or chain extender in the synthesis of specialty polyesters, polyurethanes, and polyethers, imparting unique properties from its alkyne and diol functionalities.
• Surfactant & Lubricant Intermediate: Used to create novel non-ionic surfactants, emulsifiers, and synthetic lubricant base stocks with tailored hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) and thermal stability.
• Pharmaceutical Research: Acts as a key synthetic intermediate or scaffold in medicinal chemistry for developing new therapeutic candidates, leveraging the alkyne group for "click chemistry" applications.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Employed in the production of advanced crop protection agents and plant growth regulators requiring specific aliphatic backbones.
• Material Science: Utilized in the development of advanced coatings, adhesives, and sealants where controlled cross-linking and durability are required.
• Chemical Research (R&D): A versatile building block in organic synthesis for constructing complex molecular architectures via reactions at the hydroxyl and alkyne sites.

Quality Control

Our 5,10-Diethyltetradec-7-yne-6,9-diol is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, identity, and impurity profiles are available for every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
