Description

Carbamic Acid, (8-Aminooctyl)-, Phenylmethyl Ester is a specialized organic compound featuring both a carbamate and a primary amine functional group separated by an octyl chain. This bifunctional structure makes it a valuable chemical building block for the synthesis of more complex molecules, particularly in pharmaceutical and advanced material research. It is primarily utilized by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the life sciences and fine chemical sectors.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key synthon in the development of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for compounds requiring a long-chain amine linker.
• Bioconjugation Reagent: Used to create stable amide or carbamate linkages for attaching molecules to proteins, peptides, or other biomolecules.
• Polymer Modification: Serves as a functional monomer or cross-linking agent for introducing amine groups into polymer backbones to alter material properties.
• Protecting Group Chemistry: The benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz) group can act as a protecting group for amines in multi-step organic syntheses.
• Ligand Synthesis: Building block for creating chelating ligands used in catalysis or metal ion sequestration.
• Surface Functionalization: Used to amine-functionalize surfaces (e.g., silica, gold nanoparticles) for subsequent immobilization of other molecules.

Quality Control

Our Carbamic Acid, (8-Aminooctyl)-, Phenylmethyl Ester is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation by NMR and IR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic data are available upon request 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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
