Description

2-Phenanthrenol, 4B,5,6,7,8,8A,9,10-Octahydro-4B,8,8-Trimethyl-1-Propyl-, (4Bs,8As)- is a complex, high-purity octahydrophenanthrene derivative with a defined stereochemistry, serving as a critical advanced intermediate in organic synthesis. Its value lies in its unique polycyclic structure and functional groups, which enable the construction of sophisticated molecular architectures for research and development. This compound is essential for pharmaceutical chemists and material scientists working on novel active ingredients, specialty polymers, and high-performance liquid crystals.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key building block for the synthesis of novel therapeutic agents, particularly in steroid-mimetic or complex polycyclic drug discovery programs.
• Advanced Material Research: Serves as a precursor for developing specialty polymers, liquid crystalline materials, and organic semiconductors due to its rigid, fused-ring core.
• Organic Synthesis & Catalysis: Used as a chiral ligand precursor or a complex substrate in asymmetric catalysis and methodological studies.
• Fragrance & Flavor Chemistry: Potential intermediate for creating unique, long-lasting musk or amber-type odorants in high-end fragrance formulations.
• Agrochemical Development: Intermediate in the research and synthesis of new-generation pesticides or plant growth regulators with specific steric properties.

Quality Control

Our 2-Phenanthrenol, 4B,5,6,7,8,8A,9,10-Octahydro-4B,8,8-Trimethyl-1-Propyl-, (4Bs,8As)- is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and chiral analysis to confirm stereochemical integrity, ensuring it meets the exacting standards required for advanced R&D. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your regulatory and quality assurance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Due to its sensitivity to oxidation, the container should be kept sealed after each use to minimize exposure to air.
