Description

1-Aminooxy-4-Aminobutane is a versatile bifunctional organic compound containing both an aminooxy and a primary amine group. This unique structure makes it a valuable building block for the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds and as a linker in bioconjugation and pharmaceutical research. It is particularly sought after by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries for creating novel molecular entities and functional materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key synthon for the development of novel drug candidates, particularly in oncology and antiviral research.
• Bioconjugation Reagent: Used to crosslink biomolecules (proteins, antibodies, oligonucleotides) via its reactive aminooxy group, which selectively reacts with aldehydes and ketones.
• Heterocyclic Chemistry: Serves as a precursor for the synthesis of various nitrogen- and oxygen-containing heterocycles like morpholines and oxazines.
• Polymer Modification: Functionalizes polymer backbones to introduce amine or reactive oxyamine sites for further chemical grafting.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Intermediate in the production of specialized herbicides and plant growth regulators.
• Chelating Agent Precursor: Used to synthesize ligands for metal complexation in catalytic and analytical applications.
• Surface Functionalization: Modifies material surfaces (e.g., nanoparticles, chips) to create amine-reactive platforms for biosensor development.

Quality Control

Our 1-Aminooxy-4-Aminobutane is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation by FT-IR and NMR, to ensure it meets stringent specifications for research and industrial use. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, assay, and impurity profiles are provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at 2-8°C (refrigerated) or as specified on the label. Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent moisture absorption and degradation.
