Description

4-(11-Heneicosyl)Pyridine is a high-purity, long-chain alkylpyridine derivative, identified by CAS number 50734-69-5. This specialty organic compound is valued for its unique amphiphilic structure, which combines a polar pyridine head with a long hydrophobic alkyl tail, making it an effective intermediate and functional additive. It is primarily sought by researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced material science sectors for synthesis and formulation development.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug candidates, particularly those requiring lipophilic modification.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Serves as a key building block for creating surfactants, emulsifiers, and specialized pesticides or herbicides.
• Material Science: Acts as a precursor or modifier in the development of liquid crystals, organic semiconductors, and self-assembled monolayers (SAMs).
• Corrosion Inhibition: Utilized in formulations for metal surface treatments and protective coatings due to the coordinating ability of the pyridine nitrogen.
• Research & Development: Employed in academic and industrial R&D for studying molecular interactions, micelle formation, and as a model compound in organic chemistry.
• Specialty Surfactants: Functions as a non-ionic or cationic surfactant component in niche industrial and cosmetic formulations.
