Description

9-BBN Triflate is a highly reactive organoboron reagent, specifically 9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane trifluoromethanesulfonate, widely used as a catalyst and intermediate in advanced organic synthesis. Its primary value lies in facilitating challenging hydroboration and cross-coupling reactions with exceptional regio- and stereoselectivity. This compound is essential for R&D chemists and process engineers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries developing novel active ingredients and complex molecular architectures.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate Synthesis: A key reagent for constructing complex chiral molecules and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) via selective hydroboration.
• Catalyst for Polymerization: Used in the synthesis of specialized polymers and co-polymers with controlled molecular weight and architecture.
• Agrochemical Research: Employed in the development of novel herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides requiring precise boron-containing intermediates.
• Material Science: Facilitates the creation of advanced organic electronic materials and liquid crystals.
• Asymmetric Synthesis: Critical for producing enantiomerically pure compounds in fine chemical and process chemistry applications.
• Cross-Coupling Reactions: Acts as an efficient reagent in Suzuki-Miyaura and other palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions.

Quality Control

Our 9-BBN Triflate is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including NMR, HPLC, and titration methods, to confirm identity, potency, and impurity profiles. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment. We adhere to cGMP guidelines where applicable to support our customers in regulated industries.

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 sealed under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) when not in use to prevent decomposition. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
