Description

Bis(Cyclopropylmethyl)Amine is a specialized secondary amine featuring two cyclopropylmethyl substituents, offering a unique steric and electronic profile. This compound is valued as a versatile building block in advanced organic synthesis, particularly for introducing the constrained cyclopropyl moiety into target molecules. It serves the needs of research chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and material science industries, where it is used to create novel compounds with tailored properties.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key synthon for the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), especially those targeting central nervous system (CNS) disorders or requiring metabolic stability.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the research and production of novel herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides, where the cyclopropyl group can enhance biological activity.
• Ligand and Catalyst Preparation: Serves as a precursor for nitrogen-containing ligands in asymmetric catalysis and transition metal complexes.
• Polymer Science: Acts as a monomer or chain modifier in the synthesis of specialty polymers with unique thermal or mechanical properties.
• Chemical Research: Employed in academic and industrial R&D for method development and the exploration of new chemical spaces in medicinal chemistry.
• Fine Chemical Production: Integral to multi-step synthetic routes for high-value, low-volume specialty chemicals.

Quality Control

Our Bis(Cyclopropylmethyl)Amine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatography (GC/HPLC) and spectroscopic methods (NMR, IR), to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, documenting critical specifications. We support compliance with global regulatory frameworks, including REACH.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. This amine is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled under an inert atmosphere for prolonged storage or after opening to maintain purity.
