Description

2-Iodo-1-Ethanol Acetate is a versatile halogenated ester compound, serving as a key synthetic intermediate in advanced organic synthesis. Its value lies in the reactivity of both the iodo and acetate functional groups, enabling efficient carbon-carbon bond formation and functional group transformations. This high-purity building block is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries, facilitating the development of novel active ingredients and complex molecules.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A critical building block in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for iodine-containing drug candidates.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of advanced herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Organic Synthesis Reagent: Employed in alkylation and cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Suzuki, Heck) to introduce the 2-iodoethyl moiety.
• Material Science Precursor: Acts as a monomer or modifying agent in the development of specialized polymers and liquid crystals.
• Chemical Research: A valuable reagent for academic and industrial R&D in methodology development and complex molecule construction.
• Radiopharmaceutical Labeling: Potential precursor for compounds where the iodine atom can be replaced with radioactive isotopes like I-123 or I-131 for diagnostic imaging.

Quality Control

Our 2-Iodo-1-Ethanol Acetate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and GC for residual solvents, to ensure it meets the high standards required for synthetic applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment. We support compliance with REACH and other global regulatory frameworks.

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). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its light-sensitive nature, containers should be amber glass or otherwise opaque. For long-term storage, consider under an inert atmosphere to maximize shelf-life stability.
