Description

Silane, (3-Fluorobicyclo[1.1.1]Pent-1-Yl)Trimethyl- (9Ci) is a specialized organosilicon compound featuring a unique, rigid bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane (BCP) scaffold functionalized with a fluorine atom and a trimethylsilyl group. This compound matters as a high-value building block in advanced materials science and pharmaceutical research, where its sterically hindered, three-dimensional structure is leveraged to modulate the physicochemical properties of target molecules. It is primarily needed by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the agrochemical, pharmaceutical, and specialty polymer industries for applications requiring precise spatial control and metabolic stability.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key synthon for incorporating the bioisosteric bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane motif into drug candidates to improve metabolic stability, solubility, and membrane permeability.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of novel pesticides and herbicides, where the fluorinated BCP unit can enhance biological activity and environmental persistence profiles.
• Advanced Material Precursor: Acts as a monomer or cross-linking agent in the synthesis of specialty silicones, resins, and polymers with tailored thermal and mechanical properties.
• Ligand and Catalyst Development: Employed in organometallic chemistry to create novel ligands for catalysis, leveraging the steric and electronic influence of the fluorinated cage structure.
• Chemical Biology Probe: Utilized for labeling or modifying biomolecules in research to study protein-ligand interactions or cellular processes.
• Surface Modification Agent: Applied in nanotechnology and coatings to functionalize surfaces with fluorinated, hydrophobic silane layers.

Quality Control

Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards for research and process chemistry. Each batch is characterized using advanced analytical techniques to confirm identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results for parameters such as assay (by GC or NMR), impurity profile, and water content are available upon request. We adhere to strict internal quality management protocols to guarantee supply reliability and batch-to-batch reproducibility for our global B2B clients.

Storage

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