Description

Cyclohexanecarboxaldehyde, 4-(Methylamino)-, cis- (9Ci) is a specialized chiral aldehyde building block of significant interest in fine chemical synthesis. Its value lies in the cis-configured 4-methylamino substituent on the cyclohexane ring, which provides a defined stereochemical handle for constructing complex molecules. This compound is primarily needed by research and development chemists and process scale-up teams in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries for the synthesis of active ingredients and advanced intermediates. Its CAS number is 60740-30-9.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key chiral precursor in the synthesis of novel drug candidates, particularly those targeting neurological or metabolic pathways.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of advanced, stereospecific pesticides and herbicides where the cis-configuration is critical for bioactivity.
• Asymmetric Catalysis Research: Serves as a valuable substrate or ligand precursor in the development and testing of new chiral catalysts.
• Fine Chemical Building Block: Employed in custom synthesis and contract manufacturing for producing high-value, complex organic molecules.
• Flavor & Fragrance Chemistry: Potential use in the synthesis of sophisticated aroma chemicals where the amine and aldehyde functionalities offer unique modification points.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry place at 2-8°C for long-term stability. This compound is easily oxidized and light-sensitive; prolonged exposure to air, light, or ambient temperatures will lead to degradation. Allow the sealed container to reach room temperature before opening to prevent moisture condensation.
