Description

1-Tridecyne is a terminal alkyne compound with the linear formula CH₃(CH₂)₁₀C≡CH, serving as a versatile building block in organic synthesis and materials science. Its value lies in its long alkyl chain and reactive acetylene group, enabling precise chemical modifications for creating specialized polymers, surfactants, and pharmaceutical intermediates. This high-purity chemical is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the agrochemical, specialty polymer, and advanced material development sectors seeking to innovate with tailored molecular architectures.

Application

• Organic Synthesis Intermediate: A key starting material for synthesizing longer-chain compounds, pharmaceuticals, and complex natural product analogs via Sonogashira coupling and other cross-coupling reactions.
• Specialty Polymer & Material Science: Used in the development of functional polymers, liquid crystals, and self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) where a defined hydrophobic chain length is critical.
• Agrochemical Research: Serves as a precursor for creating novel surfactants, adjuvants, and active ingredients with specific chain-length properties.
• Surface Modification & Coatings: Employed to modify surface properties of metals, semiconductors, and nanoparticles through alkyne-based click chemistry.
• Lubricant & Fuel Additive Research: Investigated as a potential intermediate for synthesizing high-performance, low-friction additives and viscosity modifiers.
• Chemical Biology & Bioconjugation: Acts as a bioorthogonal handle for labeling biomolecules (proteins, nucleic acids) via copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC).
