Description

Nonadecanoyl Chloride is a high-purity, long-chain fatty acid chloride derivative, serving as a critical building block in advanced organic synthesis. Its primary value lies in its high reactivity as an acylating agent, enabling the efficient introduction of the nonadecanoyl moiety into target molecules. This compound is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty polymer industries seeking to develop novel compounds with specific long-chain alkyl properties.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Key reagent in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for lipid-conjugated drugs and prodrugs.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used to manufacture herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators requiring specific long-chain fatty acid functionalities.
• Polymer & Material Science: Acts as a monomer or modifying agent for producing polyamides, polyesters, and surface-active agents with tailored hydrophobic characteristics.
• Lubricant & Fuel Additives: Employed in the production of specialty esters and additives that enhance performance properties.
• Biochemical Research: Utilized as a derivatization agent for lipids and fatty acids in analytical chemistry and proteomics research.
• Surfactant & Detergent Industry: Serves as a precursor for synthesizing anionic and nonionic surfactants with specific chain lengths.

Quality Control

Our Nonadecanoyl Chloride is manufactured under strict quality control protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Production adheres to current industry best practices, and comprehensive analytical testing is performed. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and reacts violently with water, strong bases, and alcohols. Keep the container tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent degradation from moisture and ensure maximum shelf life.
