Description

n-Phenyltaurine is an important aromatic sulfonic acid derivative, widely recognized in the chemical industry for its versatile role as a key intermediate and functional additive. Its value lies in its unique structure, which combines a phenyl group with a taurine moiety, making it valuable for modifying chemical properties and enhancing performance in specialized formulations. This compound is primarily sought by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical sectors for synthesis and research applications.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those requiring sulfonate or amino acid-like functionalities.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Serves as a building block for developing advanced herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Dye & Pigment Manufacturing: Acts as a coupling agent or solubilizing group in the production of specialty dyes and organic pigments.
• Surfactant & Detergent Formulations: Employed as a precursor for anionic surfactants due to its sulfonic acid group, enhancing wetting and cleaning properties.
• Chemical Research & Development: A valuable reagent for organic synthesis and material science research, exploring new polymers and functional materials.
• Corrosion Inhibitor Component: Incorporated into formulations designed to protect metals in industrial cooling and processing systems.

Quality Control

Our n-Phenyltaurine is produced under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, assay, and impurity profiling. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all test results are provided and available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area 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 from atmospheric moisture.
