Description

2-Pyridinecarbonyl Chloride, 1,6-Dihydro-1-Methyl-6-Oxo- (9Ci) is a specialized heterocyclic acid chloride derivative that serves as a critical building block in advanced organic synthesis. Its reactive carbonyl chloride group makes it an invaluable reagent for introducing the 1,6-dihydro-1-methyl-6-oxo-2-pyridinecarbonyl moiety into target molecules, enabling the construction of complex pharmacophores. This high-purity intermediate is primarily sought by research and development teams in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries for the synthesis of novel active compounds.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key synthon for the development of novel drug candidates, particularly in medicinal chemistry programs targeting enzyme inhibition.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the research and production of advanced pesticides and herbicides, where its heterocyclic structure contributes to biological activity.
• Chemical Research & Development: A versatile reagent in academic and industrial R&D labs for constructing complex heterocyclic frameworks and studying structure-activity relationships (SAR).
• Material Science Precursor: Potential use in the synthesis of specialized ligands for catalysts or functional materials.
• Custom Synthesis & Contract Manufacturing: Employed by CDMOs (Contract Development and Manufacturing Organizations) for the scale-up and production of client-specific molecules.

Quality Control

Our 2-Pyridinecarbonyl Chloride, 1,6-Dihydro-1-Methyl-6-Oxo- (9Ci) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC and NMR, to ensure high purity and consistency suitable for sensitive synthesis applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) 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 strong acids and incompatible materials.
