Description

10-Phenyl-1-Decanol is a versatile organic intermediate featuring a long aliphatic chain terminated by a primary alcohol group and a phenyl substituent. This unique structure makes it a valuable building block for synthesizing more complex molecules in advanced chemical manufacturing. It is particularly sought after by R&D and production teams in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical sectors for creating surfactants, liquid crystals, and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key synthon in the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug candidates, particularly those requiring lipophilic side chains.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the manufacture of specialized pesticides, herbicides, and plant growth regulators where its phenyl-decanol structure imparts specific biological activity.
• Specialty Surfactants & Emulsifiers: Serves as a hydrophobic precursor for non-ionic surfactants, useful in high-performance lubricants, coatings, and cleaning formulations.
• Liquid Crystal Materials: Acts as an intermediate in the synthesis of organic compounds for liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and other advanced optical materials.
• Fragrance & Flavor Chemistry: Employed as a starting material for the synthesis of aromatic compounds with specific scent profiles.
• Polymer Modification: Used to introduce phenyl and hydroxyl functional groups into polymer chains to alter physical properties like flexibility, adhesion, and solubility.
• Organic Synthesis Building Block: A versatile reagent for Grignard reactions, esterifications, and etherifications in complex organic synthesis.
