Description

Bicyclo[2.2.1]Heptane, 2-[(1E)-2-Phenylethenyl]-, (1R,4S)-Rel- (9Ci) is a chiral, substituted norbornane derivative featuring a styrenyl side chain, making it a valuable and structurally complex intermediate in advanced organic synthesis. This compound is significant for its rigid, three-dimensional bicyclic framework, which is highly sought after for constructing molecules with specific stereochemistry and conformational constraints. It is primarily needed by research chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries for applications such as chiral ligand synthesis, medicinal chemistry, and the development of novel materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key chiral building block for the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug candidates, particularly those requiring a rigid, lipophilic core structure.
• Chiral Ligand & Catalyst Synthesis: Used in the development of novel asymmetric catalysts and ligands for enantioselective transformations in fine chemical manufacturing.
• Agrochemical Research: Employed as a precursor in the design and synthesis of new pesticides and herbicides with enhanced biological activity and selectivity.
• Material Science: Acts as a monomer or cross-linking agent in the development of specialty polymers with unique thermal and mechanical properties.
• Academic & R&D: A crucial reagent for methodological studies in organic chemistry, including cycloaddition reactions and stereochemical investigations.
• Flavor & Fragrance Chemistry: Potential use in synthesizing complex odorants and flavor molecules that benefit from its stable, polycyclic structure.
