Description

Diethyl-12-Bromododecylphosphonate is a high-purity organophosphorus compound featuring a long-chain alkyl bromide, making it a versatile intermediate for advanced organic synthesis. This compound is valued for its role in introducing phosphonate and long alkyl chain functionalities into target molecules, enabling the creation of specialized surfactants, ligands, and surface modifiers. It is primarily sought by researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and materials science industries for developing novel active ingredients and functional materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key building block for synthesizing novel drug candidates, particularly those requiring long-chain lipid modifications or phosphonate prodrugs.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of specialized pesticides and herbicides where phosphonate groups enhance systemic activity or environmental stability.
• Surface Modification Agent: Employed to create self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) or to functionalize surfaces for improved hydrophobicity, lubrication, or specific binding.
• Polymer & Material Science: Serves as a monomer or cross-linking agent for synthesizing specialty polymers, including flame retardants and ion-exchange resins.
• Ligand & Catalyst Preparation: Useful for constructing complex phosphonate-based ligands used in homogeneous catalysis and metal extraction processes.
• Research & Development: A critical reagent in organic chemistry R&D for studying nucleophilic substitution reactions and carbon-phosphorus bond formation.

Quality Control

Our Diethyl-12-Bromododecylphosphonate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and NMR for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results for identity, assay, and impurities is provided with each shipment and is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation by atmospheric moisture.
