Description

(R)-(-)-Penten-2-Ol is a high-purity chiral alcohol and a valuable building block in organic synthesis. Its defined stereochemistry makes it a critical intermediate for producing enantiomerically pure compounds, particularly in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical sectors. This product is essential for researchers and manufacturers in fine chemical synthesis, fragrance development, and advanced material science who require a reliable source of a specific enantiomer.

Application

• As a chiral intermediate in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and agrochemicals.
• Utilized in asymmetric synthesis for constructing complex molecules with high enantiomeric excess.
• Employed as a precursor or monomer in the development of specialty polymers and advanced materials.
• Used in fragrance and flavor chemistry to create specific olfactory notes.
• Serves as a ligand or catalyst component in organometallic chemistry and catalysis research.
• Applied in academic and industrial R&D for methodological development in organic chemistry.

Quality Control

Our (R)-(-)-Penten-2-Ol is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chiral purity analysis (HPLC/GC), to ensure it meets the high standards required for synthetic applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming identity, purity, and enantiomeric excess.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, well-ventilated place. Due to its highly volatile and easily oxidized nature, the container should be kept tightly sealed and away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Recommended long-term storage temperature is 2-8°C.
