Description

2(3H)-Furanone,4-Ethyldihydro-3-Hydroxy-4-Methyl-5-(1-Methylpropyl)-(9Ci) is a specialized furanone derivative, a class of compounds valued for their role as flavor and fragrance intermediates and as versatile building blocks in organic synthesis. This compound matters for its potential to impart unique organoleptic properties or serve as a key chiral synthon in the production of fine chemicals and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). It is primarily needed by R&D chemists and manufacturers in the flavor & fragrance, pharmaceutical, and agrochemical industries seeking to develop novel compounds with specific sensory or biological activity profiles.

Application

• Flavor and Fragrance (F&F) Industry: As a key intermediate or precursor for synthesizing novel aroma chemicals with lactonic, fruity, or creamy notes.
• Pharmaceutical Research: Serving as a chiral building block or scaffold in the synthesis of potential drug candidates and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Agrochemical Development: Utilized in research for creating new active ingredients for crop protection products.
• Organic Synthesis: Acts as a versatile intermediate for constructing complex molecular architectures in academic and industrial research laboratories.
• Fine Chemical Production: Used in the manufacture of specialty chemicals requiring specific stereochemistry or functional groups.

Quality Control

Our 2(3H)-Furanone,4-Ethyldihydro-3-Hydroxy-4-Methyl-5-(1-Methylpropyl)-(9Ci) is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key specifications such as assay, enantiomeric excess (if applicable), and impurity profiles 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 area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
