Description

3-Phenyl-1-Propylzinc Bromide is a versatile organozinc reagent, a key building block in modern synthetic organic chemistry. Its value lies in enabling highly selective carbon-carbon bond formation reactions, crucial for constructing complex molecular architectures. This compound is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors who require reliable, high-purity intermediates for cross-coupling and nucleophilic addition processes.

Application

• As a critical reagent in Negishi cross-coupling reactions for the synthesis of complex biaryl and alkene structures.
• Key intermediate in the production of pharmaceutical active ingredients (APIs), especially for compounds containing a phenethyl or phenylpropyl moiety.
• Used in the synthesis of liquid crystal materials and other advanced organic electronic components.
• Employed in agrochemical research for creating novel herbicides and fungicides.
• Facilitates nucleophilic addition to carbonyl compounds (aldehydes, ketones) for alcohol synthesis.
• Valuable in academic and industrial R&D for methodology development and library synthesis.

Quality Control

Our 3-Phenyl-1-Propylzinc Bromide is manufactured under strict quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high reactivity. Each lot is analyzed to confirm identity, purity, and solution concentration (typically supplied as a solution in THF or diethyl ether). Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing assay (by titration), zinc content, and halide content are provided and available upon request. We adhere to cGMP principles where applicable to support our customers in regulated industries.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. This product is moisture-sensitive (hygroscopic) and easily oxidized; it must be stored under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry place. For solutions, store at 2-8°C. Use appropriate ventilation and chemical-resistant equipment when handling.
