Description

4-(4-Iodophenoxy)-Phenol is a high-purity iodinated phenolic compound, serving as a versatile and critical building block in advanced organic synthesis. Its value lies in its unique molecular structure, which incorporates both a phenolic hydroxyl group and an iodophenoxy moiety, making it an essential intermediate for creating complex molecules. This product is primarily needed by R&D laboratories and production facilities in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries for developing active ingredients and functional materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key precursor in the synthesis of novel drug candidates, particularly in developing thyroid hormone analogs and other bioactive molecules.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the research and production of advanced herbicides, pesticides, and plant growth regulators.
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Materials: Serves as a building block for creating iodinated aromatic cores used in electronic display and lighting technologies.
• Polymer Modification: Employed to introduce phenolic and halogenated functionalities into polymer chains to alter thermal and chemical properties.
• Cross-Coupling Reactions: Acts as a reliable substrate in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki, Heck) due to the reactive iodine atom.
• Research & Development: Essential for academic and industrial chemists exploring new synthetic pathways and material science applications.

Quality Control

Our 4-(4-Iodophenoxy)-Phenol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via FT-IR and NMR, to ensure it meets exacting standards for research and production use. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its nature of being easily oxidized, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation. Keep away from heat and incompatible materials.
