Description

Fluorosuccinate CAS NO 687-50-3 is a versatile fluorinated organic compound that serves as a key building block in advanced chemical synthesis. Its value lies in the introduction of a fluorine atom into target molecules, which can significantly alter their physical, chemical, and biological properties. This makes it an essential intermediate for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries seeking to develop novel compounds with enhanced performance characteristics.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for introducing fluorine to improve metabolic stability and bioavailability.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Serves as a precursor in creating advanced herbicides, pesticides, and fungicides with increased efficacy and environmental selectivity.
• Fluorinated Material Production: A key monomer or modifier in the development of specialty polymers, surfactants, and liquid crystals with unique surface properties and stability.
• Organic Synthesis Building Block: Employed in research and development for constructing complex molecules via reactions like nucleophilic substitution or coupling reactions.
• Biochemical Research: Utilized as a probe or tracer in metabolic studies, leveraging the fluorine atom as a stable NMR-active label.

Quality Control

Our Fluorosuccinate is produced under a stringent quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including identification, assay, and impurity profiling via techniques such as HPLC, NMR, and titration. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results are provided to guarantee the material meets your specific research or production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
