Description

Bicyclo[2.2.1]Hept-5-Ene-2-Carboxaldehyde, 3-(1-Methylethyl)-, (1R,2S,3S,4S)-Rel- (9Ci) is a high-purity, stereochemically defined chiral building block essential for advanced organic synthesis. Its rigid bicyclic framework and reactive aldehyde functionality make it a valuable precursor for constructing complex molecular architectures with precise spatial orientation. This compound is primarily needed by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries for developing novel active ingredients and functional materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key chiral synthon in the research and development of new drug candidates, particularly for central nervous system (CNS) and anti-inflammatory therapies.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in creating advanced, stereoselective pesticides and herbicides where the specific spatial configuration is critical for bioactivity.
• Ligand and Catalyst Development: Acts as a precursor for synthesizing novel chiral ligands and organocatalysts used in asymmetric synthesis.
• Material Science Research: Employed in the development of specialty polymers and advanced organic materials with unique structural properties.
• Flavor and Fragrance Chemistry: Potential use as an intermediate for synthesizing complex, naturally-derived odorants and flavoring agents.
• Academic and R&D Laboratories: A valuable tool for methodological studies in organic chemistry, including cycloaddition reactions and stereoselective transformations.

Quality Control

Every batch of our chiral aldehydes is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. We employ advanced analytical techniques including chiral HPLC, GC, and NMR to ensure excellent enantiomeric and chemical purity. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your regulatory and R&D documentation 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, keep away from oxidizing agents and strong bases.
