Description

2-[(2-Nitrophenyl)Amino]Propanoic Acid is a specialized organic compound featuring a nitrophenylamino moiety attached to a propanoic acid backbone. This structure makes it a valuable intermediate in the synthesis of more complex molecules, particularly in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical sectors. It is primarily sought after by research and development chemists, process development scientists, and manufacturers in fine chemical production for creating active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and advanced crop protection agents.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key building block in the synthesis of novel drug candidates and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those requiring a nitrophenyl-substituted amino acid structure.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the research and production of advanced herbicides, pesticides, and plant growth regulators.
• Dye and Pigment Manufacturing: Serves as a precursor in the development of azo dyes and other complex colorants.
• Research & Development: Employed in academic and industrial laboratories for organic synthesis, method development, and biochemical studies.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Utilized in multi-step synthetic routes to create complex amines, amides, and heterocyclic compounds.

Quality Control

Our 2-[(2-Nitrophenyl)Amino]Propanoic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure high purity and consistency, meeting the stringent requirements of our global clientele in research and industrial synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

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