Description

2-Cyclohexene-1,4-Diol,2-Methyl-5-(1-Methylethyl)-,(1S,4S,5S)-(9Ci) CAS NO 676268-01-2 is a high-purity, stereochemically defined cyclohexene derivative, serving as a critical chiral building block and intermediate in advanced organic synthesis. Its defined stereochemistry at the 1, 4, and 5 positions makes it invaluable for constructing complex molecular architectures with high enantiomeric purity. This compound is essential for research and development in the pharmaceutical and fine chemical industries, where precise stereochemical control is paramount for developing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and specialty chemicals.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key chiral synthon for the synthesis of novel drug candidates, particularly in therapeutic areas requiring complex, stereospecific molecules.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Used in the production of advanced agrochemicals, flavors, and fragrances where specific stereoisomers are required for optimal activity or scent profile.
• Asymmetric Catalysis Research: Employed as a ligand precursor or a test substrate in the development of new asymmetric catalytic reactions.
• Material Science: Potential monomer or cross-linking agent for creating specialized polymers with unique optical or mechanical properties.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: Serves as a standard or starting material in methodological studies and process chemistry development within organic chemistry laboratories.
