Description

Iodinated Glycerol is an organoiodine compound derived from glycerol, where iodine atoms are covalently bonded to the carbon backbone. This chemical is valued for its unique reactivity and serves as a versatile intermediate in the synthesis of more complex iodinated compounds and specialty chemicals. It is primarily sought by the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical industries for research, development, and manufacturing processes.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly in the development of iodine-containing drugs and contrast agents.
• Research & Development: Serves as a key reagent in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry research for introducing iodine functional groups.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a building block for manufacturing specialty iodinated compounds used in various industrial applications.
• Biochemical Studies: Utilized in biochemical research as a tracer or probe due to the distinctive properties of the iodine atom.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Employed in the development of specialized agrochemicals where iodine incorporation is required.

Quality Control

Our Iodinated Glycerol is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analysis to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as assay, impurity profile, and physical properties is provided with every shipment to guarantee it meets your specific research or production requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term stability. Keep away from incompatible materials.
