Description

Benzoyl Chloride, 3,4-Dicyano- (9Ci) CAS NO 437552-35-7 is a highly functionalized benzoyl chloride derivative, distinguished by the presence of two cyano groups on the aromatic ring. This unique structure makes it a versatile and valuable high-purity chemical intermediate for advanced organic synthesis. It is primarily sought after by R&D laboratories and production facilities in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical sectors for constructing complex molecular architectures.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key building block for the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those requiring a functionalized benzoyl moiety.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of advanced herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Polymer Chemistry: Serves as a monomer or cross-linking agent for the development of specialty polymers with specific thermal or chemical resistance properties.
• Ligand and Catalyst Development: Employed in the creation of novel ligands for metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) or asymmetric catalysis.
• Dye and Pigment Manufacturing: Acts as a precursor for synthesizing complex organic dyes and functional pigments.
• Material Science Research: Utilized in the development of advanced organic electronic materials and nonlinear optical (NLO) compounds.

Quality Control

Every batch of Benzoyl Chloride, 3,4-Dicyano- is manufactured and tested under a strict quality management system. We guarantee high purity and batch-to-batch consistency through rigorous analytical protocols including HPLC, GC, and NMR. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to ensure compliance with your research or production specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent hydrolysis. Keep away from strong bases and oxidizing agents.
