Description

(S)-(-)-1-(4-Methoxyphenyl)Ethylamine-Hcl CAS NO 574744-39-1 is a high-purity chiral amine hydrochloride salt, serving as a critical building block in asymmetric synthesis. Its value lies in providing a defined stereocenter essential for producing enantiomerically pure pharmaceuticals and advanced materials. This compound is primarily needed by research institutions and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries for developing active ingredients and fine chemicals.

Application

• As a key chiral intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical active ingredients (APIs), particularly for central nervous system (CNS) drugs.
• Utilized in asymmetric catalysis and as a resolving agent for the separation of enantiomers.
• Employed in the research and development of agrochemicals, such as herbicides and fungicides with specific stereochemical requirements.
• Serves as a precursor for the synthesis of liquid crystals and other advanced organic materials.
• Used in academic and industrial R&D for method development in organic and medicinal chemistry.
• Acts as a ligand or auxiliary in transition metal-catalyzed reactions.
