Description

Oxirane, (2,6-Difluorophenyl)- (9Ci) is a specialized fluorinated oxirane derivative, also known as 2,6-Difluorophenyloxirane. This compound serves as a versatile and valuable building block in advanced organic synthesis, particularly for introducing fluorinated aromatic moieties into target molecules. It is primarily sought after by pharmaceutical and agrochemical research & development teams for the creation of novel active ingredients, as well as by fine chemical manufacturers producing advanced intermediates.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key precursor in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) with fluorinated aromatic rings, potentially enhancing metabolic stability and bioavailability.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Building block for developing new-generation herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides where the difluorophenyl group is a critical pharmacophore.
• Liquid Crystal & Electronic Materials: Intermediate in the production of fluorinated compounds for specialty polymers, liquid crystal displays (LCDs), and dielectric materials.
• Fine Chemical Research: Used in academic and industrial R&D for exploring new reaction pathways and creating complex, fluorinated molecular architectures.
• Cross-linking Agent: Potential use in the modification of polymers and resins, where the oxirane (epoxide) ring can undergo ring-opening reactions to form cross-linked networks.

Quality Control

Our production of Oxirane, (2,6-Difluorophenyl)- adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure high purity and consistent composition. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles are provided with every shipment. We support cGMP and ISO 9001 aligned practices for traceability and quality assurance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container should be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) to minimize moisture uptake and degradation. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability.
